It was a pleasure to connect and share insights at the Clinical Pharmacy Congress last week.
PHP were proud sponsors of the lanyards for this event, which took place on the 10th and 11th of May. These lanyards represent our dedication to environmental responsibility. Crafted from eco-friendly materials, they embody our mission to reduce waste and promote sustainable alternatives.
We believe that small actions can lead to significant change.
By choosing biodegradable and renewable lanyards – made from natural bamboo fibres – PHP showcases its commitment to sustainability.
Bamboo is a fast-growing plant that requires minimal water and no pesticides to grow – making it an eco-friendly choice. They decompose naturally over time, returning to the soil without leaving harmful residues. Their production involves fewer carbon emissions and environmental impacts compared to plastic lanyards.
In short, bamboo lanyards offer a greener alternative to plastic lanyards – emphasising long-term ecological benefits. Opting for bamboo-based products can contribute positively to conservation efforts and promote a healthier planet.
Here, we explore the top four uses for your old lanyards:
1. Gardening and DIY projects
Use them to tie up plants in your garden or balcony, creating a sustainable alternative to plastic ties. In DIY projects, lanyards can serve as sturdy straps for bags, keychains, even hammocks, adding an eco-consciousness touch to your creations.
2. Educational tools
Lanyards can become educational tools, especially in classrooms or workshops focused on sustainability. Use them to create interactive learning aids such as number lines, timelines, or vocabulary cards. Their durability makes them ideal for hands-on activities, promoting eco-awareness while engaging learners of all ages.
3. Organisational solutions
Use them to hang keys, ID cards, or small tools in your workspace or garage. Create a DIY hanging organiser by attaching multiple lanyards to a rod or hook, offering a sustainable and functional storage solution.
4. Community initiatives
Come together by collecting used lanyards for recycling or upcycling projects. Why not partner with local organisations or schools to turn these materials into new products or art installations?
The journey of an eco-friendly lanyard doesn't end at the exhibition booth. By embracing creativity and sustainability, these humble accessories can find new life in various ways – from DIY projects to educational tools and beyond.
Let's reimagine the potential of lanyards – turning them into symbols of eco-conscious living and innovation.
