The cornerstone of that product offering is the Go-Green line of fabrics made from recycled plastic drink bottles, they are completely eco-friendly products. Go-Green fabrics are woven from post-consumer PET (Polyethylene Terephthalate) fibers. The source of the PET is recycled plastic drink bottles. The process of recycling the bottles into fabric begins with sorting the bottles by color and the removal of any non-PET materials such as caps, bases, and labels. The PET is then washed and ground into flakes. The flake is heated and extruded into fiber, which can be made into yarns of different types depending upon the type of fabric being made.

The yarns are woven or knitted into fabrics which can be made into an infinite number of finished products such as carpet and clothing, industrial strapping, rope, upholstery fabrics, boat sails, automotive parts, fiberfill for winter jackets and sleeping bags, and construction materials, to name just a few.

Our entire product line of Fabric BannersTable Covers & Runners, and Fabric Backdrops can be produced with these eco-friendly fabrics.

Sustainable Banners

We print on the highest quality fabrics to create beautiful, eco-friendly banners for trade shows, events, meetings, corporate offices, and street banners for indoor or outdoor use… basically, anywhere our customers want to display their brand.

Conventional printed banners on plastic and vinyl may eventually wind up in a landfill. Instead, Go Green Banners can craft detailed and beautifully printed banners on recycled fabrics for a more environmentally responsible option. We only use earth-friendly and nontoxic, water-based inks in every printing job we complete, and all our eco-friendly printing materials are manufactured in the United States.

Eco-friendly Banner Stands & Table Covers

All of our Eco-Friendly Banner Stands include a fabric banner, stand, and a soft carrying case, making it easy for you to transport your banner display.

Sustainable Banner Stands
Banner Stand and Table Cover

We provide soft carrying cases with every banner stand we produce for easy transportation, and you can feel good about making an ecologically responsible choice for your brand’s advertising needs.

Sustainable Backdrops

Our eco-friendly backdrops can be custom-made to fit your space requirement or choose from a full-size backdrop, a three-quarter backdrop, or a half backdrop.

Our company mission is to create environmentally responsible and earth-friendly products for all types of applications. Backdrop displays are usually quite large, so choosing sustainable materials like our fabrics is a great environmentally conscious choice for any business owner.

Sustainable Table Covers & Runners

Our custom-printed Eco-Friendly table covers, tablecloths, throws, runners, and drapes add that professional touch to your tabletop and help your display look it’s very best at your next trade show, meeting, expo, convention, and more.

Our products are printed on a lightweight wrinkle-resistant fabric and can be custom-sized to fit any table. Choose from many sizes, styles, and Pantone colors. Our goal is for you to get many years of quality use from our products. All of our covers are wrinkle-resistant and machine washable.

How Can You Spot a PVC Banner?

They’re the ones emitting a “shower curtain” odor, causing headaches when left in warm environments like a car or garage. This smell comes from volatile organic compounds (VOCs) off-gassing from the banners, potentially leading to nausea and sore throats after prolonged exposure.

A study by CHEJ revealed that the notorious “new shower curtain smell” could pose health risks, with one PVC shower curtain potentially releasing up to 108 volatile organic chemicals. These can affect the liver, central nervous system, respiratory system, and reproductive system, and may cause developmental issues.

Benefits of Using PET Recycled Products:

Our eco-friendly banners are perfect for any event, whether it’s for a zoo, aquarium, school, or restaurant, enhancing your marketing efforts with a positive environmental impact. Our unique printing process guarantees top-quality prints in the eco-friendly market.

All our products are proudly made in our Austin, Texas facility, using Made in the USA fabrics, distinguishing us from many competitors who outsource their production, sometimes internationally.

While there are many benefits associated with using PET recycled products, a few include:

  • Less waste in landfills by utilizing this green and eco-friendly printing process.
  • Decreased demand for petroleum products and fewer environmental impacts from the processing of petroleum into virgin polyester.

Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium Chose Eco-Friendly Banners

In Tacoma, Washington, the Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium has embraced the mission of going “Plastic-Free to Save Our Sea.” They approached Giant Printing in search of sustainable fabric street banners to promote their plastic-free initiative. We supplied them with environmentally friendly street banners that avoid the use of toxic PVC, Solvent, or UV inks. These banners help raise awareness for the zoo’s exhibit — WASHED ASHORE – Art to Save the Sea — showcasing “larger-than-life sea creatures” made from plastics found in ocean trash.

Join Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium in going Plastic-Free this year by making small yet impactful changes to protect our oceans.
