Going Green: Earth-friendly options for everyone.
Everyone is talking about going green these days and for good reason. As far as we know there is only one planet earth, so we better take care of it. From the cars that we drive to the food that we eat everything is being moved to a more sustainable plan. Wal-mart has even started to push all their suppliers into more eco-friendly practices. Here at The Design Monkey, LLC we are no different. I am proud to say that over 95% of the cleaning solutions, by volume, used in our system are biodegradable products. We are transitioning to a new ink system that has a lower setting point, which will allow us to operate the dryers at a lower temperature, reducing our energy consumption.

The Apparel Industry is no different. Right now the manufacturers are coming out with new products weekly. Anything from your classic tee like the ones offered by Anvil in 10 different colors, to high performance work out wear from Alo. Today's materials are very comfortable, offer great wear ability and some even offer all natural moisture wicking, anti-microbial features. Organic cotton is the main player right now, but more items are being made out of bamboo and recycled fibers. Be sure to download our Eco-friendly Catalog. Inside it explains what makes organic cotton better and how it is made. You will also find some of our favorite items, like t-shirts, polos, caps, and totes, that are currently available. The list grows everyday so be sure to contact us if you don't see what you're looking for.
