Amorepacific and TerraCycle have signed a memorandum of understanding on an initiative for the systematic recycling of empty bottles.
Nat Hab has devised various strategies to limit trash while in the park: providing travelers with a zero waste toolkit that includes personal reusable items such as water bottles, mugs, cutlery and tote bags; transporting packed meals in reusable containers; recycling single-use packaging, including hard-to-recycle items through TerraCycle; composting napkins and biodegradable food waste; and buying food in bulk. Waste reduction begins even before the trip starts, with travelers receiving digital versions of all pre-trip materials, including forms to complete and the daily itinerary.
In addition, the brush’s BPA-free bristles are colored with food-grade, mineral-based pigments and recyclable through the brand’s collection program with upcycling leader TerraCycle, the company said.
For example, when
Loop — TerraCycle’s new durable, refillable shopping platform — launches in the United Arab Emirates, it may be under a design message:
This is the future of product design.

Where the cannabis industry grows, sustainable packaging solutions seem to follow. Also in Canada, the first
nationwide cannabis packaging recycling program was rolled out by recycling experts TerraCycle and cannabis brand Tweed in April. Tweed had voiced the need for a recycling system for all the new containers, tubes and packages created by the growing cannabis industry, in a bid to divert these away from landfills and upcycling them into other products.
Recycling used to be so simple: aluminum cans, glass bottles, newspapers and paper bags. But the sheer amount of disposable items has turned a garbage problem into a garbage crisis, says Tom Szaky, founder and chief executive of TerraCycle. The company’s mission is recycling the previously unrecyclable, such as cigarette butts, contact lenses and chewing gum.
“Everything we pick up today will be counted and weighed,” said group spokesperson Laura Wood.
“We sort the items into recyclable and non-recyclable. If it’s recyclable, it gets recycled here. All the cigarette butts are then shipped to TerraCycle.”

Introducing our first TerraCycle Zero Waste Box!
This box is for the disposal of all SMALL plastic or metal bottle caps! These small caps can cause issues with conveyor belts at the recycling plants and are generally trashed if they fall through the machinery. Caps larger than 1.5" can go in regular recycling.
