TerraCycle's EcoNation Products Are a Hit with Tweens and Teens
TerraCycle Starburst Mars Skittles Include USA M&Ms
TerraCycle is a company known for eco-innovation. They take trash and upcycle it into great, green goods like backpacks, notebooks, folders, tote bags, wallets and pencil cases along with yard and garden products.
Now they are creating a line of eco-gadgets under the Eco-Nation sub brand. "Eco-nation is staying ahead of the fashion curve with a conscience: big impact on your gadgets, small impact on the planet." These new green gadgets will help you "groove greener".
The TerraCycle Eco-Nation gadgets start out as candy wrappers from M&Ms, Skittles, Starburst and other candies and get transformed or "upcycled" into awesome speakers and boomboxes. These handy upcycled speakers come as flat, folded cardboard that you fold into a boombox or set of speakers and attach to your iPod or other mp3 player. The speakers and boombox run off the mp3 power supply so they need no batteries.
