Enviro-Tote?, Inc. has been creating environmentally friendly promotional tote bags since 1990. Our bags are made from unbleached and colored cotton, certified organic cotton, and The Bottle Bag?, a material made from 100% recycled soda bottles. All our products are made in the U.S.A. We fill orders starting at only 50 bags! And our customers have used Enviro-Tote? bags for company promotions and special events throughout the U.S. and around the world.

Family owned and operated

Each of our bags is individually cut, hand-stitched and screen-printed at our plant in tax-free Bedford, New Hampshire. Enviro-Tote?, Inc. is a family-owned, woman-owned and operated company.

One bag at a time

Because we cut fabric only after an order arrives, we can provide custom sizes and styles as easily as our standard sizes and styles. We offer a wide selection of unbleached and colored materials for both bags and handles. After carefully cutting and hand-stitching each bag, we customize your bags with your company logo or promotional message. From start to finish, we take great care in producing each bag we make.

Enviro-Tote staff
Company with a conscience

The environment is important to us, so we believe in generating as little waste as possible in all that we do. Our efficient cutting and stitching methods, along with precise printing, eliminate fabric waste. All of our standard sizes are designed to have no fabric waste. We recycle all our office paper and cardboard, cans and bottles, and re-use one-sided office paper, which is bound into note pads. And, of course, we re-use our Enviro-Tote bags when we shop!


A history of recycling

Enviro-Tote began operations in Manchester's historic Millyard and purchased stitching equipment from garment giant Pandora, which was going out of business after providing decades of work to local stitchers. In addition to recycling Pandora's stitching machines, we also hired Pandora stitchers, most are still with our company today.


Value of working together

We value our employees and their work, as evidenced by our affiliation with the Fair Labor Association as a Category C licensee. Since 1990, we have grown from 12 to 40 employees, many who have been with us since the beginning. As a family-owned business, we understand the importance of working well together. This harmony and attention to detail is seen in every bag we make.

The following is a reply from Enviro-Tote to our question – "Are your products Made in America?"

How do you know the products you have listed are Made in the USA?
Before including products in our database we review the advertiser’s website and/or contact them to ascertain the origin of their products. Some advertisers sell both Made in USA products and foreign ones. Therefore we highly recommend you review FAQ 2.

We immediately investigate any complaints regarding deceptive Country of Origin claims. If we determine an advertiser's claim is not truthful we will immediately remove the product/s from our database and suspend our relationship with the Company making the claim.

To document your complaint, email us by using our Contact Us page. We can only respond to complaints that have been submitted in writing.

What does Made in USA mean?
There is no law requiring most products to be labeled Made In USA, or have any other disclosure about the amount of U.S. content. However, for job creation purposes (see our Big Secret tab), if you have a choice between an imported product and one with no country of origin on its label, choose the product without a country of origin over the imported one. This is true because the product without the country origin on its label has at least some American labor in its content and the imported one most likely does not.

Note: Imported products are required by law to country of origin on their label and products partially Made In USA do not. To answer this question completely reviewing our Labeling Tips 1, 2 & 3. These tips are accessible from scrolling to the bottom of our home page clicking Browse All Tips button.
