Tastes Great
Eliminating wasteful cartons, cans, and plastic bottles that can end up in the oceans and landfills, Coco Taps' Zero Waste Fresh Tapped Coconuts come with a twist-off cap for easy access to the delicious, untainted refreshment inside. The all-natural drinking vessels are both reusable and resealable, and they can last in the refrigerator for up to four weeks. Marketers can also opt to have their fruit branded – literally – with a custom design. Estimated cost for an order of 100 (including custom-logo setup): $1,000.

In the Bag
Each of these Organic Cotton Sheeting Economy Totes makes a great and durable alternative to the standard – and environmentally hostile – single-use grocery bags and petroleum-based nylon and polyester sacks. Their compartments measuring 14-by-14 inches, the totes are remarkably lightweight and come with 26-inch-long handles for over-the-shoulder carrying ease that almost guarantees attendees will never be bothered with the question "Paper or plastic?" ever again. Estimated cost for an order of 100 (including free setup for a one-color imprint): $299. Contact: 4imprint Inc., Oshkosh, WI, 800-642-2084, www.4imprint.com

The Right Way to Write
A crunchy twist on the traditional branded notebook, the ApPeel Medio Slim Journal is made from apple pulp and other vegetable fibers that have been converted into organic paper. The jot-worthy journals feature 60 Earth-friendly pages that are as natural as a Granny Smith plucked fresh off a tree. Estimated cost for an order of 100: $1,031.

Tag, You're It
This sustainable luggage tag is made from 100-percent recycled chipboard and wrapped in an eco-friendly cotton twine. Available in seven colors, including clay red and grass green, the 3-by-5.25-inch tag features a die-cut window and saddle-stitched accent. Estimated cost for an order of 100 (including one-time setup fee of $60): $888. Contact: Swag.com Inc., New York, 718-878-4442, www.swag.com

Charging Ahead
Your devices might not be Green, but your charger can be. With its casing made from the stalks left after wheat is harvested – and which are often burned as refuse – the Wheat Straw Wireless Charger puts that natural material to better use. What's more, the covering material decomposes at a rate similar to paper, so it can be used for compost. The charger is also Prop 65-compliant for distribution in California. Estimated cost for an order of 100 (including setup fee for one-color, one-location imprint): $945. Contact: Lev Promotions, San Diego, 619-697-2045, www.levpromotions.com



Shirt Happens
With their antimicrobial and water-wicking properties, the T-shirts from Rethink Worldwide Inc.'s Rethink Fabrics brand would be a wardrobe staple even if they weren't manufactured from 100-percent recycled plastic water bottles. As a bonus, every order includes an environmental-impact statement that shows how many bottles were reclaimed from oceans and landfills to make the products. Estimated cost for an order of 100 (including setup fee for printing and color separation): $999. Contact: Rethink Worldwide Inc., Las Vegas, 702-426-5092, www.rethinkfabrics.com
