Some time ago, I discovered  TerraCycle , a company that offers to collect non-recyclable materials otherwise to give them a second life. They sell boxes to harvest these materials, online or at Wholesale Office. TerraCycle was founded by Tom Szaky in 2001. While a student at Princeton University, he founded the company to divert waste from landfills. Quickly, TerraCycle has become the world leader in the collection and processing of hard-to-recycle waste.   Solutions for Halloween   Halloween after Halloween, I really wanted to find a solution for the candy packaging that ended up in large quantities in the trash. Even though my kids do not spend Halloween for quite some time, I know this is a need for many other parents.   I then made the link between my need and the company TerraCycle. PH effect was the perfect answer!   Refusing and reducing  should be the priority, but for many children, picking candies is one of the great pleasures of life! So, I think giving people the opportunity to divert candy wrappers from landfills is a great idea.   That's why Effect PH has partnered with various companies to pick up these candy wrappers after Halloween. All candy wrappers are accepted as well as pastilles, chocolate bars, small snacks, gums and even small bags of potato chips.   All you have to do is collect the candy wrappers and carry them to one of the collection points.   If your business, school, or child care service wishes to work with us on this project, contact us at helene@effetph.com   Pickup points Here are our pickup points where you can go carry candy wrappers during their opening hours, from November 1st to November 21st, 2019.
