Mouse mats and the environment

Mouse mats are ubiquitous, just like mice, can you think of an office without at least one? Have you considered what mouse mats are made of? Plastic is the principle component along with printing ink and some glue, all of it derived from crude oil. How much energy is consumed in the extraction process, transport and then manufacture of all these products? I wonder how much impact the mouse mat manufacturing process has upon the environment. At a time when we are daily confronted with more and more evidence of global warming it is perhaps time to consider more carefully how we might reuse waste, conserve energy and raw materials and help to reduce our carbon footprint. It is possible to promote a business very well with recycled business gifts thus helping to reduce impact upon the environment. We can now offer two styles of mouse mats made from recycled materials, recycled car tyre mousemats and Brite-Mat mousemats. Recycled car tyre mouse mats are only available in black and can be screen printed in up to 3 spot colours. These car tyre mousemats are very robust and we believe that they would be excellent for use in schools, colleges and workshops. Brite-Mat mouse mats made from recycled materials are litho printed one colour to full colour. In addition Brite-Mat mouse mats made from recycled materials are priced the same as those produced from virgin raw materials. So why not buy recycled mousemats instead of new mouse mats?
