Although the availability of green products for the home is expanding, many of the companies that carry these items are still falling under the radar because they just aren’t part of the mainstream yet. This means that without digging deeper, prospective green consumers just don’t know where to look in order to find affordable, eco-friendly items to decorate their homes with. It’s really nice to see some of the big name companies coming on board with green alternatives, because it increases everyone’s exposure to products that are sustainable, eco-friendly and affordable.
Kodak has been the latest big name to join in the production of home products that have minimal environmental impact. They’ve recently released a line of Eco Care frames which avoid the use of toxic chemicals and they use bamboo, since it is the fastest renewing natural wood that reproduces itself with no replanting required. Although bamboo is becoming the most popular material used to produce all sorts of sustainable products, having Kodak advocate its use will reach more people and help them to understand the importance of using alternative items that are environmentally friendly.
Kodak currently carries four frames in their Eco Care line, all made from bamboo, which have a different look and feel to fit every home décor theme. Available in a variety of sizes, the frames are affordable, organic and water based with no chemicals, and the mat board and backing board on the frames are made from completely recycled materials. Since the design of the frames is similar to what they already offer in the non-eco friendly variety, there’s no reason for people not too chose the sustainable frames. Hey, if you’re going to make a purchase to help you cherish your memories in film; why not ensure that you make steps to preserve and cherish the environment at the same time?
