Recycled Notebooks for the Business World: A Unique Corporate Gift

Arbos

When it’s time to choose a corporate gift, many business managers face a real challenge. What can you give to suppliers, collaborators, or employees that is at once useful, original, and aligned with the company’s values? The usual pens and USB drives? Beware of clichés! Gift baskets and bottles? Always appreciated, true, but they can feel a bit impersonal.

Today, we live in a business world where every act of communication matters, and a corporate gift must convey something significant about the brand, be memorable, and ideally have a value that goes beyond the object itself. Luckily, that’s where we come in with Arbos’ recycled notebooks: items that embody the best of who we are, combining sustainability, beauty, and functionality.

What is a corporate gift, and when should you give one?

Corporate gifts are relationship tools. Perhaps you want to retain your customers, thank employees for their hard work, or strengthen ties with long-standing partners and suppliers. A corporate gift serves to create and maintain a bond. You can give them on special occasions like Christmas, a company anniversary, corporate events, or to celebrate achieving significant milestones.

A well-chosen corporate gift is an opportunity to make people feel valued and appreciated. To achieve this, the selected item should speak the language of your brand’s values—values that are also ours: sustainability, quality, and beauty. In this context, an Arbos notebook becomes much more than a simple notepad: it becomes a statement.

Why a notebook made from recycled materials is a special corporate gift

A notebook is an item that accompanies everyone’s work life. Whether it’s taking notes during a meeting, jotting down ideas you don’t want to forget, or organizing your day, a notebook is an extremely personal tool. And a notebook made from recycled materials, entirely crafted in Italy like those made by Arbos, offers something extra.

Firstly, choosing this type of product as a corporate gift communicates a strong commitment to the environment. At a time when sustainability is in the global spotlight, gifting a notebook made from recycled materials demonstrates sensitivity and alignment with the values many companies, like yours, aim to promote. Additionally, an Arbos notebook is not just a sustainable product but also a timelessly designed, impeccably crafted item—a result of Italian artisanal expertise that Arbos has cultivated since 1988.

Recycled Material Notebooks: What They Are and Their Benefits

What do we mean by “notebook made from recycled materials”? Arbos notebooks are crafted using materials such as recycled paper, straw paper, Ricuoio®, Ristoffa®, and Tar Paper®. Each of these materials has a unique story, making every notebook a small masterpiece of sustainability and innovation—perfect for your corporate gifts.

For example, recycled paper and straw paper are produced without cutting down new trees, reducing water and energy consumption compared to traditional paper.
Ricuoio® is a material obtained from leather processing scraps, reassembled to create a durable and pleasant-to-touch surface.
Ristoffa® is derived from discarded clothing and textile waste, giving new life to materials that would otherwise end up in landfills.
Tar Paper® is a type of paper made with a cardboard sheet infused with distilled bitumen, giving the material strength and a unique appearance.

Choosing a recycled material notebook as a corporate gift not only communicates environmental awareness but also good taste. It means treating collaborators and partners with care and gifting them notebooks that combine design, craftsmanship, and artistry. It’s a way of saying: “We appreciate your work and care about the world around us.”

When to Choose Arbos for Your Corporate Gifts

There are numerous occasions when your company can choose an Arbos notebook as a corporate gift. Christmas, for example, is the perfect time to place under the tree an item that is useful, beautiful, and sustainable. Corporate anniversaries, new product launches, or achieving significant milestones are also excellent opportunities to give a gift that leaves a lasting impression.

Arbos notebooks are also ideal as giveaways during events and trade shows. In these contexts, a personalized notebook with your company logo is not only well-received but becomes a true marketing tool, capable of conveying who you are and what values you stand for.

Looking for ideas? Arbos offers many products that can be customized to become unique corporate gifts.
For instance, the “Mecum” notebook: small and practical, perfect for jotting down thoughts and ideas on the go. Minimalist in design, it combines beauty—with its elegant Ricuoio® cover—and functionality.

Or the “Dot” notebook, with its unique cover made from high-thickness colored cardstock, featuring a soft-touch embossed effect. The vibrant colors—orange-black and lime-blue—are enhanced by a contrasting circular insert in cardstock.

Still Undecided?

Corporate gifts often risk being anonymous and insignificant. Choosing an Arbos notebook means making a meaningful choice, one that speaks of sustainability, creativity, and care for the environment. A notebook made from recycled materials is not just a useful object; it’s a symbol of the values your company wants to promote, a message of respect for the planet, and a genuine gesture of appreciation for the recipient.
