Our Favorite Environmentally-Friendly Business Cards

1. Digital Business Card by Wave

Possibly the most economical way to promote your business: using a digital business card! This digital business card by Wave is such a cool option, especially since everyone today carries around their phone, and often throws away standard business cards! This is a card that you attach to the back of your phone with a tap and QR code feature to readily share with your customers! You can choose to include your photo, business details (phone number, email address, business days and hours, customer service team, etc.)

  • Smart tap feature

  • QR code

  • No app required to receive contact information

2. Popl x Keyport Digital ME Key - Digital Business Card

This is another digital business card option, however, instead of attaching to the back of your phone, it is a keychain! This could be a very convenient option if you don't mind having it attached to your key ring! It is compact, looks sleek, and would surely impress your customers!

3. Stainless Steel Metal Business Cards

These 304 stainless steel business cards come in a ready to engrave, uncoated finish! If these match your business aesthetic, they are a very cool option! 304 stainless steel can be recycled approximately 8 times, so this is a much better option than a non-recyclable or plastic coated option!

4. Handmade Cotton Paper with Deckle Edge Recycled Cotton Rag Mixed Media Card Stock

These eco-friendly business cards are handmade, crafted from recycled cotton paper. They are great quality and if you are a small business owner and these match your aesthetic, they are a very elegant option! They give an elevated, natural look that simply can't be replicated with traditional card stock!

5. Of The Earth Recycled Lotka Printer Paper Embedded with Wildflower Seed

This beautiful paper by Of The Earth is embedded with wildflower seeds and would make the coolest seed paper business cards! You can use a non-toxic printer ink (like algae ink, for example) to custom print your business card design, contact information, and/or company logo, and then cut this paper to size. If you have a brand rooted in sustainability, giving your customers a business card that can be planted is sure to make a lasting impression! If this isn't the best way to show that you care about sustainability, I don't know what is! 

This company also sells seed paper shapes on amazon - from butterflies to hearts!

6. Plantable Business Cards by Botanical Paperworks 

The Plantable Business Cards by Botanical Paperworks are another great option if you are looking for plantable business cards! Botanical Paperworks will print your business cards for additional charges, which is well worth it if you ask me! You simply upload your file (they accept JPG and PDF file formats) and will receive a digital proof to approve before printing begins! 

Shipping time ranges from 1-10 business days depending on the type of item and number of items in your order.
