Travel Tags, Inc. announces partnership with Earthworks®

INVER GROVE HEIGHTS, MN — Travel Tags, Inc., a leading prepaid and gift card solutions provider, strengthens its initiative to provide consumers and retailers with environmentally-friendly solutions by announcing a partnership with Earthworks®.

Travel Tags, Inc.’ partnership with Earthworks System LLC, will allow retailers who produce gift cards to Earthworks specifications the ability to participate in the Recyclable Card Return Program from Earthworks. Travel Tags will work with retailers and Earthworks to create a circle of gift card recycling that is sustainable and good for the environment. The process is a simple progression of steps which uses returned gift cards to produce recycled plastic card stock that is then used to produce more cards. Cards produced under the program will include an Earthworks® Recyclable Content Identifier as an indication of program participation.

“Retailers are becoming more and more focused on ‘greening’ up their products and services and we’re excited to be able to assist our customers in fulfilling their sustainability initiatives by providing a full suite of renewable card substrates and recycling capabilities,” says Martha Weaver, marketing manager at Travel Tags, Inc.

Rodd Gilbert, president of Earthworks SystemTM, adds “Adding the Earthworks® Recyclable Content Identifier to Travel Tags, Inc.’ mix of programs provides an appealing alternative for retailers who want to distinguish themselves as environmental leaders. It seamlessly integrates with current card programs, allowing a way for retailers to demonstrate eco-awareness and for consumers to feel good about helping the environment – it’s a winning solution.”
