Recycled Notebook Spines

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Eco Clip Gives Journal-Writing Types the Facility to Bind Their Own

— January 30, 2013 — Eco
Oh, how much some people -- myself included -- love browsing for beautiful new diaries. The Eco Clip encourages you to curb that consumerist habit since the materials for making your own blank booklet can likely be found in your own home. IGLOO Design has dreamed up this simple spine of about 9 inches long, requiring you to obtain your paper from the recycling bin, old scratch pads or from some (ideally) sustainable source for new sheets.

Gather together up to 15 pages of A4 dimensions and fold the stack in half. Slide the creased edge down the length of the Eco Clip. A bar down its core keeps them fixed in place from the centerfold and the external pinching edges give you a secure binder for whatever purpose you desire it.
Trend Themes
1. Diy-notebook-making - The trend of making your own notebooks using recycled materials presents an opportunity for businesses to develop DIY kits and supplies.
2. Eco-friendly-stationery - The trend of using sustainable materials for stationery products opens up opportunities for businesses to create environmentally friendly alternatives.
3. Upcycled-paper-products - The trend of using upcycled paper for various products encourages businesses to explore innovative ways to repurpose paper waste.
Industry Implications
1. Craft-supplies - The craft supplies industry can tap into the DIY notebook-making trend by offering tools, materials, and instructional resources.
2. Stationery - The stationery industry can capitalize on the trend of eco-friendly stationery by creating sustainable and reusable products.
3. Recycling - The recycling industry can explore opportunities to collaborate with businesses in the upcycled paper products market and create a circular economy.
