StartMotions carries the Recycled Map Envelopes because they one of the top five (at least!) recycled paper products in the world. Made entirely from surplus and out of date maps, the envelopes are an affodable solution to the oh-so-hard-to-find recycled envelopes! Even our invoices and some packaging is printed on the recycled map notepad.
These envelopes are made from surplus maps, saving 100% fresh wood fiber, more than 95% of energy, 100% of bleaching agents, 100% of water, and 100% of binding agents. They are amazingly beneficial for the environment. These unique envelopes have a smooth feel, accept all types of inks, and they're avaliable in many different sizes and quantities. Wholesale orders are encouraged, imagine how much it would help the earth if we all used recycled materials! Please contact Emily@StartMotions.com. Made in Germany.
So not only do these envelopes actually benefit the environment, but they also continue their impact because 100% of the profits go toward the making of an environmentally friendly animation and S.M.I.L.E. Shipped in recycled/reused/donated containers and packing materials.
Our unique greeting cards are printed on 100% recycled paper (90% post consumer waste, 10% hemp/flax). Processed without chlorine. The smooth, "speckle" free paper beautifully accepts inks of all kinds. Shipped in recycled/reused/donated containers and packing materials.
The Tiny Tinfoil Animals were StartMotions first fund-raisers, made entirely from reused tinfoil, they represent our mission. Delicate and easily lost, they are an appropriate metaphor for their living counterparts. 100% of the Tinfoilathon proceeds go toward S.M.I.L.E.
Sadly, we haven't been able to find recycled DVD's or DVD cases yet. (If you know of any please contact us!) But the DVD insert is printed on 100% recycled paper and it's shipped in recycled/reused/donated containers and packing materials.
StartMotions T-shirts are made by "American Standard" from organic cotton and created in the U.S.A. in sweatshop free environments. These "Sustainable Edition" shirts are not only good for the earth, but are super-soft (it must be the organic cotton!) Shipped in recycled/reused/donated containers and packing materials.
The Magnets are not made from recycled material, but if you know of recycled magnets please let us know! Fortunately, you'll probably keep these guys forever, because they're so fun! Also fotunate is the way they're shipped to you, in recycled/reused/donated containers and packing materials.
The Animal Movie Puppet Sponsorship package is a great way to show support for an environmentally friendly animation, giving you insight to your favorite Two By Two Animal as the animation progresses. Everything contained within the vintage wooden cigar box is made from recycled materials. Shipped in recycled/reused/donated containers and packing materials.
During our quest to best serve you, we feel it's our responsibility to use earth-friendly materials. Although this green pracitce involves more time, finances, and effort, StartMotions believes it's currently the best way to conduct any business (or non-profit). We try to provide the products at affordable prices, and as soon as our material goods (organic cotton, reecycled paper, etc.) become more common, the prices will drop. We will continually update our catalog according to the new, lower prices. Thank you for supporting our growing non-profit.
