TerraCycle Include USA LOL Surprise
LOL Surprise toys, which are made by MGA Entertainment and include Bratz dolls, told CNN Business that it’s working on a “brand new biodegradable plastic for 2020.” Along with the new plastic, the company has partnered with recycling organization TerraCycle, offering consumers the opportunity to ship their old packaging and toys to TerraCycle or drop them off at one of its locations, where they will be reconstituted as pellets for new uses. The sustainability initiatives are meant to address the large amount of waste LOL products generate. CNN Business reported: The current packaging is essentially the 21st century’s waste-filled Russian nesting doll: The package itself is shrink-wrapped in plastic. Once you open the package, you’re greeted by small plastic bags. Once you open those plastic bags, you’re greeted by another plastic casing that’s filled with sand and trinkets, each individually wrapped in plastic.
