TerraCycle is just one of the companies that are lending a helping hand to ensure that cosmetic products are recycled properly. A few years ago, the company teamed with beauty brand Garnier to create the Personal Care and Beauty Recycling Program, which is a free program that accepts shampoo and conditioner bottles, eye cream tubs and hair spray pumps.
A more regenerative system in which collected waste materials are used as a resource to create new products is what recycling is actually about. For example, years ago my company TerraCycle partnered with Garnier to create the
Personal Care and Beauty Recycling Program, a free program that accepts everything from shampoo and conditioner bottles, eye cream tubs and hair spray pumps
for recycling. To enhance our recycling initiative’s impact, the program itself is brand agnostic: all personal care and beauty waste is accepted for recycling, regardless of brand.
Full credit to L’Oreal for joining forces with TerraCycle a global recycling expert to find new ways to recycle packaging that currently goes to landfill.
Initiatives like the launch of the Beauty Products Recycling Program across L’Oreal brands Garnier, L’Oreal Paris and Maybelline encourage consumers to change their habits, to collect their empty beauty products at home and send them to TerraCycle to be recycled, with L’Oreal Australian covering the costs of the program – brilliant!
We also partner with Terracycle and participate in the following recycling brigades sponsored by Colgate, Garnier, Scotch Brand tape and Solo. Bring us all of your used toothpaste tubes, toothbrushes, shampoo/conditioner bottles, lotion bottles, makeup containers (lipstick, mascara, eyeshadow, #6 Solo cups, Go-Go squeezable yogurt pouches, scotch tape dispensers, cellphones, digital cameras, MP3 players and ink cartridges.
Colgate-Palmolive, for example, is one of TerraCycle’s largest key partners with a multi-fold commitment to sustainability. Regardless of brand, Colgate allows all oral care products and packaging to be recycled through their sponsorship of the Colgate Oral Care Recycling Program, empowering their consumers to collect these plastics on a national scale.
O material recolhido é enviado a empresas como Faber-Castell, Scoth-Brite, Colgate e Garnier, que custeiam a reciclagem dos materiais para a Terracycle...
At TerraCycle, we have evaluated every type of consumer waste and have found that nothing is beyond recycling. Thanks to our many corporate partners, such as Colgate, Garnier and Brita, we have successfully recycled post-consumer product and packaging waste into new, wholly different products by deconstructing them into their component parts and giving the waste materials a second life.
