Plant-Based Ring Binders Made in the USA
Earth’s Choice binders combine familiar Samsill durability with plant-based plastic, recycled chipboard, and USDA Certified Biobased content.
What makes Earth’s Choice different?
Earth’s Choice binders use plant-based polypropylene partially derived from Brazilian sugarcane. The binder boards are made from 100% recycled chipboard, and the finished product is certified to contain 59% biobased material.
They are manufactured in Fort Worth, Texas using the same ring-binder expertise Samsill has developed since 1953.

How plant-based plastic is made
Sugarcane is processed into renewable feedstock that can replace a portion of conventional fossil-fuel-based plastic. The resulting material performs like polypropylene while reducing reliance on traditional petrochemical inputs.
