Today we are excited to announce that The North Face partnered with upcycling and recycling pioneer TerraCycle® to create The North Face Polybag Brigade®. Through the partnership we are diverting 100% of the polybag packaging waste at the 20 The North Face retail stores in the U.S. where #4 plastic bags are not readily recyclable. Eliminating waste at all stages of the product lifecycle is a key component of The North Face comprehensive sustainability program. Through The North Face Polybag Brigade, The North Face and TerraCycle are actively pursuing a solution to a common packaging waste problem in the apparel industry.
