# Bamboo Business Cards Grovemade's Sustainable Business Cards are a Great Alternative to Paper By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2014-10-08 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bamboo-business-card References: [design-milk](http://design-milk.com/grovemade-introduces-bamboo-business-cards/) & [grovemade](http://grovemade.com/corporate/) In addition to being made from a super sustainable and renewable material, Grovemade's bamboo business cards are sleek and present themselves beautifully. The company is known for making a range of beautiful bamboo products including phone docks and sleeves for your mobile devices, but this is the first time it has branched into business cards. The renewable bamboo business cards are a great alternative to conventional paper business cards, especially since they can be highly customized with the use of engraving, printing and precision laser cutting. To make these business cards truly unique and premium offering, each one is sanded and oiled by hand to show off the beauty of the natural bamboo wood texture. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.3/10 - Popularity: 90% | Activity: 62% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Sustainable Business Cards:** Businesses can innovate on sustainable materials for their products to showcase their commitment to environment and design. - **Customized Laser Cutting:** Companies can use precision laser cutting to create personalized and unique products for their customers. - **Handcrafted Products:** Handcrafted and premium offerings can set products apart and add value to the customer experience. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Printing:** The printing industry can explore the use of sustainable materials and precision laser cutting technology for business cards and other products. - **Marketing and Advertising:** Marketing and advertising firms can differentiate themselves by offering clients unique, eco-friendly and handcrafted business cards as part of their branding initiatives. - **Creative and Design Services:** Design and creative services can expand their offerings to include customized and eco-friendly products like bamboo business cards to attract eco-conscious clients. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Digital Business Card Platforms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/digital-business-cards.md) - [Bamboo-Based Sustainable Toiletries](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/caboo.md) - [Eco-Friendly Hardwood Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hardwood-accessories.md) - [PVC-Free Gift Cards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/renovo-gift-card.md) - [Strong Bamboo Towels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/panda-eco-paper.md) - [Bamboo Sugarcane Paper Towels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tree-free-paper-towels.md) - [Sustainable Toilet Paper Brands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sustainable-toilet-paper.md) - [Hybrid Bamboo Razors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bamboo-razors.md) - [NFC-Enabled Business Cards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mobilo-smart-business-card.md)
