Environmentally friendly corporate gifts 

The past couple of years have seen incredible growth and change at MOO. From expanding our branded merch range (and adding some new, familiar brands) to achieving FSC^® Certification, we’ve been busy making our products more sustainable than ever.

“We’ve really focused on making thoughtful decisions about the impact of our products,” says Toby Hextall, MOO’s Director of Product Design. “As we build out our product ranges, you’ll see that sustainability is the backbone of our design philosophy.”

If you’re looking for environmentally friendly corporate gifts, now is the perfect time to gift better, better for your team, better for your clients, and better for the planet.

Feel-good branded merch

Looking for sustainable gift ideas for employees and clients? Our expanded Drinkware range is packed with stainless steel bottles, tumblers, cups and mugs. Stainless steel is 100% recyclable and durable. Unlike plastic bottles, which can contribute to pollution and take centuries to decompose, stainless steel bottles can be reused for years, cutting down on the need for single-use plastics. And when they finally do reach the end of their long life, the steel itself can be recycled into new products. By choosing stainless steel, you’re having a positive impact on the planet.

We’re FSC^® certified

Since 2023, we’ve had several major milestones on our sustainability journey here at MOO. And the latest is helping us support sustainable forestry: we received our Forest Stewardship Council® (FSC®) certification (FSC-C214359). 

For Toby, this was a big moment: “It’s really exciting to become FSC® certified – it lets us champion the beautiful papers in our products and packaging, and gives customers the confidence that the paper is responsibly sourced and maintained.”

FSC® is widely recognized as the gold standard in responsible forest management. Having the certification not only reflects our commitment to sustainable sourcing, but it also showcases the high standards our teams work to every day.

“I’m always driven by projects that will make a positive difference; this feels even sweeter as we’ve been independently audited,” says Luke Landers, our Head of Sustainability. “Someone else has come around and verified the efforts we’ve put into certification.”

Eco paper

We’ve been searching for a new paper for a while now. One that could minimize the environmental impact for your big projects, while living up to the exceptional print quality expected from MOO. 

And here it is. Eco is made from 100% post consumer waste (essentially, from paper that’s already been used) and is 100% recyclable. This means we can close the recycling loop and eliminate the need to harvest virgin materials, so it’s better for the planet. It also prints brilliantly. 

“Our Eco paper proves that quality and sustainability don’t have to be mutually exclusive,” says Luke. “It feels reassuringly sturdy and refined in your hand, and the subtle speckles hint at its past life as another form of paper.”

Stickers

Finding eco-friendly corporate gifts is all well and good. But what if you want to up your giftwrap game? We’ve developed two new planet-friendly Stickers that’ll make your packaging pop. Matte Paper Stickers are made from smooth, uncoated paper. But don’t let their wet-strength finish fool you – they’re 100% plastic-free, so once you’re finished with them, they can go straight in the paper recycling.

Coated Paper Stickers are even tougher. They have an eye-catching semi-gloss finish, they’re water-resistant, and they’re 100% PVC-free (a common plastic found in stickers). So they’re better for the planet, and they won’t get soggy if the delivery driver leaves your parcel out in the snow.

Our sustainability journey

We’ve made huge strides in the last couple of years, but we know this is just the beginning. “Our biggest responsibility is ensuring our products have sustainability baked in from the outset,” says Luke. “That way, whichever MOO product a customer chooses, they can be confident that it’s doing its part for the planet.”
