Sustainability isn’t just a buzzword anymore—it’s how smart brands do business. With more than 80% of people saying it’s important for companies to offer eco-friendly products, your branded swag needs to show you care about the planet as much as you care about your brand.
Ready to make a meaningful impact and get your logo out there for all the right reasons? Let’s dive into Networx Promo’s curated list of the top five eco-friendly promotional products that will get your brand noticed (and remembered!) in 2025.
1. Reusable Drinkware & Water Bottles
There’s a reason reusable bottles and cups are always at the top of every “best promo” list: they’re incredibly useful, people keep them for years, and each one replaces dozens—if not hundreds—of single-use plastic bottles and coffee cups.
Stainless steel water bottles, bamboo-lid tumblers, and collapsible travel cups are just a few of the trending styles making waves in 2025. They combine functionality with a feel-good factor, showing your audience that your brand goes beyond the ordinary.
Why they matter:
- Cuts back on plastic waste (and coffee shop cup guilt)
- Used every day, which means constant brand visibility
- Appeals to everyone from gym-goers to office warriors

2. Eco-Friendly Tote Bags
If you go anywhere in 2025—grocery shopping, the gym, or even the farmers market—you’ll see tote bags slung over shoulders everywhere. They’re practical, reusable, and seriously on-trend.
Here’s where you can take things up a notch: go for totes made from recycled cotton, jute, or even upcycled ocean plastic. Not only are you reducing waste, but you’re telling a powerful eco-story every time your client (or employee!) uses your branded bag.
Why they matter:
- Replaces single-use plastic bags
- Offers big, bold branding spaces
- Comes with a built-in sustainability narrative

3. Compostable Tech Accessories
Chances are, if you peek inside anyone’s backpack you’ll see more than a phone—it’s earbuds, chargers, maybe a laptop sleeve. But here’s the next-level move: tech promos made from plant-based, compostable materials.
Think phone cases crafted from wheat straw, earbuds in bamboo fiber shells, or laptop sleeves that can naturally break down when their working days are done. In 2025, these items are conversation-starters—because nobody wants their tech accessories to stick around in a landfill for centuries.
Why they matter:
- Tackles the huge problem of electronic waste
- Appeals directly to environmentally conscious, tech-savvy recipients
- Puts your brand at the leading edge of innovation

4. Sustainable Office Supplies
Forget boring pens and sticky notes. Welcome to a new generation of branded swag—made from recycled or rapidly renewable materials! Sustainable office supplies have quickly moved from “nice to have” to “must-have” as brands look to reduce their day-to-day footprint.
Popular in 2025: recycled cardboard journals, bamboo pens, wheat straw desk caddies, and refillable highlighters. Each item not only does the job, but keeps your brand attached to daily work routines, making those sustainable practices feel second nature.
Why they matter:
- Keeps your name on their desk, every single day
- Demonstrates genuine, practical commitment to sustainability
- Ideal for employees, clients, event giveaways, and onboarding kits

5. Ocean Plastic Products
These are the ultimate badge of environmental action. Ocean plastic products are made by reclaiming waste plastic collected from waterways and turning it into useful, everyday items like water bottles, tote bags, and even sunglasses.
Handing out a branded item that once floated in the ocean (now completely clean and stylish, of course!) isn’t just cool—it positions your company as part of a bigger solution. That’s a story people love to share, and it’s the kind of swag people feel good about keeping.
Why they matter:
- Support real ocean cleanup efforts
- Turn waste into a force for good
- Build deep emotional connections with clients and employees
