Design in Demand: Cardboard Coasters
April 1st, 2009Why this item stands out in a crowd:
Everybody wants to be different. Everybody wants to have the great idea or the hard to find print. These coasters are unlike anything we’ve ever seen before. Made from 100% Recycled cardboard, they are as delicate and intricate as any fancy glass coaster. Yet, they are remarkably sturdy and can change from a coaster into a votive holder by just pulling out the center!

A little inside knowledge on the power and importance of recycling from Cardboard Designs:
A 90% increase in demand for paper products is expected by the year 2010. This is happening when half of the world’s original forest cover is
gone and in the U.S. only 5% of our natural forest cover remains. The U.S. consumption of about 30% of the world’s paper helps fuel this demand.
This is one area where every person has power. We may not be able to control multinational companies, but we can control what we buy. Every time you purchase something that has been recycled you are making a difference, saving landfill space, raw materials and decreasing the amount of air and water pollution.
For every 1 tons of scrap paper we recycle we save 17 trees, 4200 kilowatt hours of electricity, 7000 gallons of water, and 3 cubic yards of landfill space. In addition, 60 pounds of effluents are not emitted into the air. To keep this cycle going, “Recycled” materials must be needed and have value!
