As a student, your daily choices can have a significant impact on the environment. From the backpack you carry to the supplies you use, every decision matters. That's why we've put together a list of eco-friendly products in India and recycled paper products that can help you become a sustainable student.
Eco-Friendly Backpacks
The first and most obvious eco-friendly backpack essential is the backpack itself. Traditional backpacks are often made of synthetic materials such as polyester and nylon, which take hundreds of years to decompose.
But by investing in an eco-friendly backpack made of sustainable materials such as organic cotton, hemp, or even recycled plastic bottles, you can reduce your carbon footprint and support environmentally responsible companies.
Reusable Water Bottle
Staying hydrated is crucial, but buying plastic water bottles every day is not eco-friendly. Plastic bottles take a thousand years to decompose, and millions end up in landfills and oceans each year. By investing in a reusable water bottle made of stainless steel, glass or copper, you can significantly reduce your plastic waste.
Recycled Paper Products: Notebooks
Notebooks are essential for taking notes and staying organised, but traditional notebooks are made of paper sourced from trees. By choosing notebooks made of recycled paper, you can help reduce the number of trees cut down for paper production.
At Rescript, we offer notebooks made from 100% recycled paper. Check us out today!

Reusable Food Containers
Packing your own lunch is a great way to ensure that you’re eating healthy. However, using single-use plastic bags and containers is not eco-friendly. By investing in reusable food containers made of stainless steel or glass, you can significantly reduce your plastic waste. Look for containers with compartments that can help you organise your snacks or meals.
Bamboo Cutlery Set
Eating on the go can be challenging, but using disposable plastic cutlery is not eco-friendly. By investing in a bamboo cutlery set, you can reduce your plastic waste and eat on the go sustainably. Bamboo is a fast-growing and sustainable material that is perfect for eco-friendly cutlery. Many companies in India offer bamboo cutlery sets, including those with additional features such as a carrying case.
Eco-Friendly Pens & Pencils
Pens and pencils are essential stationery for students, but traditional pens and pencils are often made of plastic and wood. By choosing eco-friendly pens and pencils made from sustainable materials, you can reduce your impact on the environment. Check out our sustainable pens & pencils made from 100% recycled paper!
Solar-Powered Chargers
For a student, charging your devices frequently is necessary, but using traditional chargers can be energy-intensive and not eco-friendly. By investing in a solar-powered charger, you can charge your devices sustainably using renewable energy.
Solar-powered chargers are perfect for on-the-go charging, and many come with additional features such as built-in batteries, making them ideal for camping or hiking trips.
