A simple action that can have a lasting impact
Recycling plastic containers does more than keep them out of the landfill. It gives them a second life.
When plastic containers are recycled, they can be processed and made into new containers, helping reduce the need for new raw materials.
But that is only part of the story. Recycled plastic can also be turned into a wide range of everyday products, including cell phone cases, playground equipment, clothing, and rugs.
Every container recycled is an opportunity to conserve resources, support recycling markets, and keep useful materials in circulation longer. It is a simple action that can have a lasting impact.
