Our colourful wristbands have become a big part of TFNation - but they also come with an environmental cost.
Each year, we order thousands of wristbands for Europe's largest gathering of Transformers fans. To prepare for those last-minute surges in attendance, we have to overestimate how many we need - which means we're often left with surplus, single-use wristbands after the event.
In an effort to make our registration operations greener this year, we'll be trialling a new variety of Eco-Paper Wristbands. (If you've attended our recent Mini-Con events, then congratulations - you've already helped with our testing!)
Not to be confused with Tyvek, Eco-Paper wristbands are made from recycled materials and are themselves widely recyclable, bio-degradable and compostable.
So whether they end up in your collection, your recycle bin, or even your vegetable patch, you can be safe in the knowledge that you'll be helping to transform the planet - one wristband at a time!
