Bring your brand to (real) life.

Promo with a Purpose
March 19, 2025

If you’re reading the Tactive blog, you probably already know how powerful promotional products can be for your brand. (And if not, catch up with some suggested readings…) But have you thought about the impact the right promo can have beyond ROI—like on your community or the planet? 

These five promo suppliers prove that promotional products can do good while making your brand look good, too.  

1. Bloomin Promotions

Planting the Future

Bloomin Promotions takes sustainability to the next level by creating seed paper from 100% post-industrial, recycled materials. Their vibrant, plantable products are dyed with all-natural, vegetable-based pigments, ensuring they’re as earth-friendly as they are eye-catching. Plus, their solar-powered production facility keeps their carbon footprint low. 

 

Try this: plantable coasters with wildflower seeds embedded inside!

2. Logomark

Supporting Service Animals

A portion of the proceeds from sales of Perka, iCOOL, and Work brands ordered from Logomark helps fund Shelter to Soldier, a nonprofit that trains service dogs for veterans in need. With every branded bottle or backpack, you’re supporting an incredible cause.

Our fave: this 24-can cooler bag!

3. Fill It Forward

Reducing Waste, One Bottle at a Time 

Fill It Forward is on a mission to maximize the impact of reusable drinkware. Their Cupanion bottle only needs to be used twice to offset the emissions from its production. With sustainability built into their business model, they’re proving that the best bottle is the one you use again and again. 

Shop for: the Cupanion bottle, of course, but also add on the special clip for easy carrying.

4. SanMar

Backpacks That Give Back 

SanMar’s Charity Tech Packs aren’t just functional—they’re philanthropic. For every pack sold, SanMar donates $5 to the American Red Cross or the American Cancer Society, making it easy to support life-saving causes while outfitting your team with quality gear.

5. tentree

Clothing That Grows Forests

tentree makes Earth-first apparel and soft goods from the most sustainable (and comfy) materials around. But the real magic? They plant 10 trees for every item sold! With over 72 million trees planted so far and a goal of 1 billion by 2030, they’re proving that even small choices can have a lasting impact. 

We love this packable puffer jacket!
