According to WasteOnline, “If everyone in UK offices saved just one staple a day, we’d save 72 tonnes of metal a year”. Now that doesn’t even factor in the processing and shipping costs of staples. This nifty little green gadget, Eco Stapler, will fix together up to 3 sheets of paper without a single bit of metal.
I look forward to the day where such a gadget can actually staple more pages together, but the idea is fantastic. Just think, you won’t jam up your shredder with staples again!
