Arvee Corporation Features Greenciles, the Earth-friendly Pencil that Puts the Power of Recycling in the Palm of Your Hand

Arvee Corporation is now offering Greenciles® - the environmentally friendly pencil that's made completely from 100% recycled newspaper.

Mississauga, Ontario (PRWEB) November 10, 2008 -- Greenciles® are revolutionary, eco-sensitive pencils which are made from recycled newspaper. Featuring no wood products whatsoever, each Greencile® provides the same great writing and sketching quality that people come to expect from standard 2HB wood and lead-based pencils.

Each Greencile® is made from a variety of recycled paper products including newspapers, stationery and printer paper. Instead of being sent to landfills, the paper used in Greenciles® is sent to our environmentally-friendly factory where it's cleaned, reused and ultimately wrapped around a graphite writing core.

"When I discovered just how environmentally-unfriendly traditional wood pencils are - from harvesting materials to manufacturing to disposal - I was shocked at the waste and the cost" says Rakhee Moye-Rajput, President of Arvee Corporation. "Greenciles® takes an everyday item that millions of people use everyday and makes it eco-friendly. What's even better is that the quality of Greenciles® is comparable, if not even better than conventional wood pencils" says Rajput.

Recycling experts state that recycling a two-and-a-half foot stack of newspapers can save one 20-foot pine tree; and recycling one ton of newspapers saves 17 trees.

Hundreds of Greenciles® can be manufactured from the typical Sunday edition of most major metropolitan newspapers. For example, there are estimated to be about 45 sheets of useable newsprint in the Sunday editions. With an average circulation of 450,000, approximately 79 million pencils could be made from one press run, if all the newspapers were recycled.

Greenciles® can be used for any writing, sketching, drafting or drawing purpose. Great for the home, office or school, Greenciles® comes in a 10-pack, features synthetic latex free erasers and writes and handles like a standard 2HB pencil.

Greenciles® is a great daily reminder to reuse, reduce, recycle.

A box of 10 Greenciles® retails for $3.00 and upwards.

The average yield is four Greenciles® per usable newsprint broadsheet. To request a Greencile®, or for more information on newsprint recycling, please contact: Rakhee Moye-Rajput
