Paperchains

It makes sense to get more mileage out of paper. Recycling is one way to do it. And when it comes to ring binders, Greenlagirl points out three, mentioned in this heavily cut quote:

TerraCycle Eco-Binders. The recycled paper cover boasts at least 75% post-consumer recycled content, and the steel rings are made of 80% recycled material.

ReBinders. These corrugated cardboard (at least 35% post-consumer recycled content) binders are assembled in Seattle by Northwest Center, which provides job services to disabled and disadvantaged people. Not only are the covers 100% recyclable, they are replaceable with new covers!

Greenback Rebinders. Also made by Sustainable Group, these Greenback Rebinders are made of chipboard (56% post-consumer recycled content) — and thus stronger than the regular ReBinders.

If you’re in the US and need ring binders how about looking for recycled options?
