It's never too early to learn the value of recycling as toddlers in the Lower Hutt suburb of Korokoro are  discovering. Korokoro Playcentre has been involved in The Collective Suckies Recycling Programme where they collect used yoghurt "suckies'' pouches, caps, tubes and containers. The programme is run by TerraCycle, a company which   rewards participants for each kilogram of waste they save from the tip. The programmes are funded by various brands, manufacturers and retailers. Many of the containers come to the playcentre as part of the children's lunches. Playcentre mum Katie Robinson  said  Korokoro had been involved with the programme since the end of last year and  had so far saved about 5 kilograms of yoghurt containers from the tip. It was an excellent effort considering the playcentre only had a roll of 30. Although the playcentre had only netted about $5 in rewards, Robinson said it was more about doing their bit for the environment. "It's about the amount of stuff not ending up in the dump." The programme also exposed the children to the recycling message which was important to the playcentre's ethos and Korokoro community. Any money raised would be put into the playcentre's other sustainability programmes such as its fruit and vegetable garden. The playcentre has also established recycling "drop-off" bins where the public could donate further yoghurt containers and oral care items such as toothbrushes which go towards their recycling total. TerraCycle is a United States based company which operates recycling programmes in 20 countries. It collects typically non-recyclable waste such as cigarette butts and coffee pods which are either recycled or upcycled into other products.

This term, Sacred Heart will take on an exciting new recycling initiative to help reduce waste and fundraise for charity! TerraCycle recycles the “nonrecyclable” and from Term Two, Sacred Heart will have two new TerraCycle bins on site, outside the Library. It is hoped that all proceeds raised will contribute to the total that is donated by the school after Sacred Heart Day.   The first BOX recycles oral care products such as old toothbrushes, floss containers, empty toothpaste tubes and caps, empty packaging from toothpaste and toothbrushes. For every kilogram of recycled packaging, we raise money to donate towards a charity. Our school also goes into a competition to win $1000 and a park bench made of…recycled oral care products! The second box recycles empty beauty care packaging and much like the oral care recycling, we earn money for every kilogram collected. Accepted waste includes:   Cosmetics packaging such as used lipstick and lip gloss, mascara, eye shadow, bronzer, foundation, eyeliner, eye shadow, lip liner, and concealer packaging. Hair care packaging such as used shampoo and conditioner bottles and caps, hair gel tubes and caps, hair spray and hair treatment packaging. Skin care packaging such as lip balm, face moisturiser, face and body wash soap dispensers and tubes, body and hand lotion dispensers and tubes and shaving foam packaging.   ALL THE PACKAGING NEEDS TO BE EMPTY AND WASHED OUT TO THE BEST OF YOUR ABILITY. So…start collecting your oral care and beauty product waste over the holidays, and watch this space for more information!

We love our coffee in Lane Cove and you can bet your sweet latte, that many Lane Cove homes have a Nespresso Machine and that means Nespresso Pods.  The pods have become a bit controversial. The former head of Nespresso, Jean-Paul Gaillard is claiming that coffee pods are killing the environment. In an interview with the ABC Jean-Paul Gaillard said that certain pods are made from a combination of plastics and aluminum with organic matter inside, the coffee pods are not biodegradable.  It apparently takes between 150 to 500 years for aluminum and plastic capsules to breakdown in landfill. Nespresso has taken steps to promote recycling and there are now several ways you can recycle your Nespresso Pods so they do not end up as landfill. Nespresso has taken steps to promote recycling and there are now several ways you can recycle your Nespresso Pods so they do not end up as landfill. Drop them off at Pureflowers Lane Cove Lane Cove is lucky enough to have a place where they can be recycled.  Pureflowers has a Lane Cove recycling program for Nespresso capsules. Pureflowers is participating in a nationwide environmental program to help recycle coffee capsules. Nespresso has joined with recycling and upcycling experts TerraCycle Australia to expand their recycling program at additional collection points around the country at florists, garden centres and nurseries. Lane Cove residents can now recycle their used Nespresso capsules at no cost by visiting Pure Flowers and dropping their capsules (sealed in any plastic bag which will also be recycled) into the in-store recycling collection box. “Pure Flowers has been delivering flowers in the Lane Cove area for 20 years. This program is an exciting initiative for our florist that’s good for the planet and makes recycling capsules accessible for locals. We’re happy to chat to customers that drop in and why not grab some fresh flowers on your way!” said Ludmila Fedorovitch, co-owner Pureflowers. The capsules will then be recycled at Nespresso’s recycling plant. Only Nespresso capsules made for in-home consumption are accepted as part of this program.  You can find out more about Nespresso’s recycling programme here.

Q’HC se enmarca en la iniciativa TerraCycle, una compañía canadiense que provee de un programa público de reciclaje para colillas y otros residuos que se estiman de difícil reciclaje. No en vano, Q’HC ya se ha puesto en contacto con los departamentos competentes del Ayuntamiento de Madrid y de la Comunidad de Madrid a fin de favorecer su implantación en la capital española.

The next phase of the plastics economy will mean going around in circles—but in a good way. The "new plastics economy" will require rethinking all aspects of the plastics supply chain, both pre- and post-consumer, so that more kinds of material can be brought into a truly circular economy. That's one of the points Rick Zultner, director of process and product development at TerraCycle, will be making at "Understanding and Succeeding in The New Plastics Economy," a keynote panel discussion at PackEx Toronto, to be held May 16-18 at the Toronto (Ontario) Congress Centre. His fellow panelist will be Leonore Adams, safety, environment, and sustainability manager at Amcor Ltd., and the session will be moderated by Norbert Sparrow, editor in chief of PlasticsToday. Zultner talked with Packaging Digest about the new plastics economy and what it means for recyclers like TerraCycle.   What do you understand “the new plastics economy” to be? In what ways does it differ from the “old” plastics economy? Zultner: I understand the "new" plastics economy to be the pursuit and development of a circular economy for all plastic materials, and better material efficiency. It is an evolution of the "old" plastic economy, with longer term environmental considerations and lifecycle thinking applied. I would characterize the "old" plastics economy as the development and expansion of plastic products. Where the old plastics economy expanded consumers’ access to products that might have been too expensive or impossible with previous materials, the new plastics economy seeks to minimize the environmental impacts associated with the production, consumption and disposal of those products.   What are the sorts of decisions/changes with regard to plastic packaging that can make a difference in the new plastics economy? Zultner: Use more systems and lifecycle thinking in packaging design, and optimize packaging as part of a much bigger material and consumer system. We already have design guides to support rigid plastic packaging, but we are in the beginning stages of developing that system for more complex and harder-to-recycle materials. For the near term, we can still use some general rules: packaging should be designed for recyclability, use recycled material and clearly communicate how to be properly recycled. Implementing those three ideas simplifies recycling for consumers, and supports the recycled material markets at the same time. Longer-term, I would expect that packaging design will have a more integrated approach. We will probably see more specific design standards and material standards to reduce the variety of new packaging formats and materials. Labeling will likely be standardized to make the consumer’s experience with the packaging and product end-of-life easier.

At the World Economic Forum (WEF) on 19 January, P&G announced that its Head & Shoulders brand would partner with recycling experts TerraCycle and SUEZ to pioneer a new approach to produce the world’s first recyclable shampoo bottle made from up to 25% postconsumer recycled content (PCR) derived from beach plastic. P&G’s Lisa Jennings, global hair care sustainability leader and Head & Shoulders brand franchise leader, said the initiative reflects concern over ocean waste. Jennings said the issue had been underscored by remarks at the previous year’s WEF by recycling campaigner Ellen MacArthur, who claimed that by 2050 the ocean could contain more plastics than fish. “I grew up by the beach in Brighton in the South Coast of England, and I was stunned,” said Jennings. “I thought about the world I would leave to my children and realised that, both as a consumer and a business leader, I had to play an active role in the solution. “2017 will be a major year for Hair Care Sustainability. I couldn’t be more proud of everyone involved in making this a reality. Together, we made the unrecyclable recyclable, and gave a second life to plastic that usually ends up in landfills or on our beaches. ” P&G has long been inspired by the idea of plastic never becoming waste. Its citizenship goals for 2020 call for doubling the amount of recycled resin used in plastic packaging and ensuring that 90% of product packaging is either recyclable, or programmes are in place to create the ability to recycle it.
