evironmentally friendly business cards

Just looking for an eco friendly option for business cards as our new business is selling real nappies so it makes sense to be 'green'.
Any recommendations welcome.

I obviously meant environmentally friendly - sorry for typo
and BUMP!

I saw there was another thread recommending moo.com and they now do eco cards - anyone used them?

thanks

printing.com do leaflets out of recycled paper, not sure about business cards but worth a shot.

is this useful? although set up by a friend of mine I'm not entirely sure i quite get it - i just can't quite see it replacing cards.

thanks
ceb80 printing.com do 50% recycled cards I've just had a wee look at their site.
hatwoman we want something to hand out to people and all our emails already have our 'signature' with contact details so I can't see the need for an online business card TBH.

i'm inclined to agree smac. and most email accounts automatically remember addresses - and other details are only a google away.when you're at home infront of your computer you've already got all the info you need on your contacts

Ooh, I didn't know Moo did eco cards. I'm always on the lookout for eco business cards (my business is recycling vintage textiles to save them from landfill, so again, eco related!) and I just can't find a recycled card alternative that matches up to non-eco options, unless I'm prepared to pay something like 50p a card. Which I'm very much not.

well I went for this company 123print.co.uk in the end. I'll report back and tell you what I think when I receive them.

Got them on Wednesday and am quite pleased with them. They are a reasonable thickness but I suppose you will never get the high quality card and glossiness when you choose the recycled option. We chose to have the recycled logo on the back as well.
Overall I would recommend them.
