Huh? Well, reducing our waste and reusing what we can is important, but so is replenishing what we use. That’s why Post-it® Notes & Easel products are certified for SFI Chain of Custody. This means they are made strictly with paper from well-managed forests where trees are replanted.
Did you know? ALL Post-it® Notes & Easel Pads are recyclable! That means, after you’re done utilizing every square inch of each piece of paper (fronts and backs), don’t toss them into the trash... RECYCLE them! Keep a separate paper bin by your desk or in your office designated to just paper products. You’ll be surprised how quickly that box fills up. Think about it. That is what you are saving from going to the landfill!
Made Local. Buy Local
