There is a growing awareness of the need for sustainable business practices. We’re the first to put our hands up and say the signage industry isn’t the most friendly on the environment, which is exactly why we have invested heavily over the years in trying to change that. Mesh Direct has a range of green signage from EcoBoard to Eco Banner Mesh, specially designed to be more environmentally friendly whilst retaining the same quality as traditional signage. Not to mention our recycling program and being 100% carbon neutral

But, why exactly is using environmentally friendly signage important for your business? We have rounded up the top four reasons we think you should consider making the switch to green signage: 

1. Reduce Environmental Impact

First and foremost, let’s talk about your environmental impact. If you’re using traditional signage it’s more than likely it will be going straight to landfill once you are finished with it. On the other hand, our green signage range is made from materials that have a lower environmental impact and are designed to be reused, recycled, or repurposed at the end of their life. Your signage might come back as a park bench, bucket or reusable shopping bag through our recycling program. By investing in green signage, businesses can reduce environmental impact and contribute to a more sustainable future.

2. Enhance Your Brand Image

Not only is using green signage better for the environment, but it can actually help to enhance your brand image and show your commitment to sustainability. Consumers are increasingly interested in supporting environmentally responsible businesses, making green signage a trick you don’t want to miss. It can help you differentiate your brand from your competitors, and in the end, could get you those extra sales from people really honing in on their research. By using eco-friendly signage, you can communicate to your customers that you are committed to reducing your environmental impact and promoting sustainable business practices.

3. The Same Quality We Know and Love 

The great news is investing in greener signage options doesn’t mean you have to compromise on quality. You heard us right! We have taken our time developing and sourcing the highest quality substrates, materials and inks so you would hardly know the difference between the traditional signage quality we know and love and their green alternatives. 

4. Meet Environmental Regulations

Finally, using green signage can help businesses meet environmental regulations and comply with sustainability standards. Many local and national governments have started implementing regulations and policies to promote sustainable business practices, and using green signage can help businesses comply with these requirements. 

So, all in all, switching to green signage can be an important tool to showcase your commitment to sustainability and the environment. If you want to explore sustainable signage solutions for your business, contact us today for more information and a quote.
