Materials & sustainability
Green Magnets change what goes into every layer of a fridge magnet, from the paper to the box it ships in. These answers cover the materials, the energy we use and what happens at end of life. For the full story, see our eco-friendly fridge magnets page.
What are Green Magnets made from?
Each magnet is printed on 100% recycled paper, covered with a plastic-free biodegradable laminate and backed with a rubber magnet that contains at least 30% recycled material.
What does a plastic-free laminate mean?
Most fridge magnets are sealed with a plastic film to protect the print. Ours use a laminate that contains no plastic and is biodegradable, while still protecting the design from everyday handling.
How is your factory powered?
Our factory in Prestons, Sydney runs on 90% renewable energy, generated by our own solar power.
Can I put an old magnet in the recycling bin?
Probably not. Magnets are made from bonded materials and most kerbside recycling services don't accept them, so check with your council. We focus on making magnets people keep for a long time, with less virgin material and plastic in them.
Who makes Green Magnets?
Green Magnets is the sustainable range from Clever Fridge Magnets, which has made promotional fridge magnets in Australia since 1994.
