Country of Origin
Eco Promotional Products, Inc.'s first priority is to source products made in the USA. However, there are still many challenges to this effort.
Examples:
- Only 3% of organic cotton is grown in the USA. Therefore, even Made in the USA apparel, using organic cotton, still has a large connection to overseas production.
- Most bamboo, USB memory chips, stainless steel and aluminum reusable/recyclable bottles are grown or made overseas.
- The material used in common reusable grocery totes is non-woven polypropylene. This material may contain recycled content and is recyclable. The grocery totes we offer are printed in the USA, however, the material is produced overseas.
Eco Promotional Products, Inc. makes this information transparent and easily attainable. For specific country of origin questions, please call 1.877. ECO.WINS (1.877.326.9467).
Labor Considerations
We have the highest respect for human rights and we work diligently to protect and respect workers’ rights. We do not purchase from or conduct business with any company that would participate in any forced or compulsory labor, supports child labor based on local country laws and we will not tolerate any form of discrimination with respect to employment. We partner with organizations around the world requiring normal and overtime paid hours that are allowed by the country that manufactures. Workers must be entitled to sick days without repercussions. Dismissal for pregnancy will not be tolerated. Employers must provide safe & healthy working environments. There must not be any physical, sexual, psychological or verbal harassment or abuse. The legal minimum wages required by local law should be just that, a minimum, and not a stagnant level. Should we learn otherwise, our association with any violating company will be immediately terminated.
