Even before the pandemic, air purifiers were among the most sought-after household appliances. Once governments acknowledged in mid-2020 that the coronavirus could remain in the air for hours, manufacturers struggled to meet demand. As other factories laid off staff, air-purifier maker RGF Environmental Group in Florida more than tripled its workforce, from 140 to 500 people. In Indonesia, sales of Sharp Corp.’s “plasmacluster” purifiers jumped, from about 3,000 units a month pre-virus to almost 13,000 by January 2021. To be effective against high levels of pollution, purifiers need to run almost constantly, sucking up energy resources as well as debris. And their filters need replacing every few months. Those components—typically a mix of natural and synthetic fibers with some plastic and metal and other coatings—almost always wind up in a landfill. QualityAirFilters.com explains on its website that though an air purifier “may appear recyclable, all of those particles that it has collected while in use make it unsafe to recycle.” All those pollutants end up in the landfill, too. Most analysts predict annual sales growth will remain in the double digits after Covid-19 has abated. That goes for the U.S., which has long been the industry’s largest market, but also for such places as India, South Korea, and Mexico, where rising wealth and health concerns are spurring purchases. For city dwellers especially, the appliances mitigate a host of modern health scourges—airborne pathogens as well as haze from burning forests and fields, industrial pollution, noxious chemicals, and allergy triggers such as pollen. “There’s a lot of startups that seem to be doing very well in that industry, and more and more are coming,” says Tom Szaky, founder of TerraCycle Inc., a specialty recycling company. Most air filters “are made in a way that costs more for a garbage company to collect and process” into new materials than they could get reselling the result. Some companies are trying to control the growing pile of waste. Oregon-based Reitmeier HVAC Services sends used filters to a waste-to-energy plant, for instance, while groups such as TerraCycle will collect them for a fee. Manufacturers, meanwhile, are developing filters that last longer or are easier to dispose of. Commercial systems made by Honeywell International Inc. use ultraviolet light. Some models use washable filters, though these typically don’t meet the highest standard of efficiency. And the reality is, all of the systems consume a lot of power.

  To celebrate Earth Day on April 22, Guitar Center is offering two different D’Addario guitar string promotions for musicians who bring their guitars for setup service, encouraging recycling and responsible green practices.   For one day only at Guitar Center locations nationwide, musicians will be eligible for one of two promotions: the Nationwide Earth Day offer, which boasts a free set of D’Addario strings with the purchase of any guitar setup service that includes a restring and the recycling of the old strings; and a limited five-store acoustic offer of a free acoustic restring with an upgrade to D’Addario XS strings with the recycling of old strings.   The latter promotion is limited to the first 25 acoustic guitar customers per store and is valid only at Hollywood, Nashville, NYC Union Square, Las Vegas and Central Houston Guitar Center locations.   The event is part of D’Addario’s Playback String Recycling Program, as well as Guitar Center’s year-round string recycling initiative, which has seen approximately six-million strings recycled to date, making the retailer one of the largest string recycling destinations in the country. The efforts are accomplished with the help of global recycling leader TerraCycle.   “It is the responsible choice to recycle, and we encourage all musicians to recycle their used strings whenever and wherever possible, not just on Earth Day,” said Stacey Spencer, Guitar Center Director – Repairs & Rentals.   “We thank all those who regularly turn to their local Guitar Center for recycling their used strings. We are looking forward to serving guitarists with customized setup services with a goal to recycle eight million strings in 2021.”   For more information, head to Guitar Center.

n 2020, Teva transitioned every one of its sandal straps to 100% traceable REPREVE recycled plastic yarn. Building on that vision of keeping its sandals sustainable, Teva has announced its TevaForever Recycling Program, a partnership with international recycling guru TerraCycle.   “Teva’s long-term vision is to work towards solutions to one day fully close the loop by recycling old Teva sandals into new ones,” Teva wrote. The program is dedicated to giving Teva sandals a second life — as something other than sandals.   Customers will be able to mail in their retired sandals to TerraCycle (at no cost). TerraCycle will then clean them, break them down, and process the recycled materials for many new purposes (like playground surfaces, athletic fields, and track grounds).    

1. Visit Teva.com to request a prepaid shipping label.
2. Ship in your Teva sandals or flip-flops.
3. That’s it. TerraCycle and Teva will take care of the rest.

  One note: Teva doesn’t yet accept shoe or boot models for recycling but hopes to do so in the future.   “Teva sandal owners can now take comfort in knowing that when their favorite pair of sandals finally wears out, they won’t experience any of the guilt that comes with throwing them away,” TerraCycle founder Tom Szaky said.

Sports nutrition brand GU Energy Labs and international recycling leader TerraCycle celebrate their six-year partnership with two milestones: upcycling more than 1.7 million pieces of performance nutrition packaging through their Performance Nutrition Recycling Program and a donation of $19,000 to schools and nonprofit organizations.   Despite the challenges of a global pandemic, the GU Energy Performance Nutrition Recycling Program recycled more than 449,000 nutrition packets in 2020, making it the highest collecting year in the program’s history. That is enough to build 20 up-cycled playgrounds. The cumulative plastic packaging waste sent in from collectors has been converted into raw material that is used in plastic products, such as shipping pallets, bike racks, park benches, recycling bins and more.   Additionally, with every shipment of packaging waste sent to TerraCycle through the PNRP, collectors earn points that are available for donation to a local school or nonprofit charitable organization of their choice.   “In 1993, we pioneered the Energy Gel and revolutionized the way athletes fuel by using single serve, portable packets,” said Celia Santi, Senior Brand Experience Manager at GU Energy Labs. “While we love seeing the ways our products help athletes achieve more, there is nothing more deflating than seeing spent gel packets on the road or trail during a ride or run. This is where TerraCycle comes in to help divert waste from landfills.”   With the support of event partners, GU Energy Labs is taking a significant step in 2021 towards diverting even more waste by pledging to collect and recycle all wrappers used during races.   Launched in March 2015, the GU Performance Nutrition Recycling Program asked athletes to send all single-serve sports nutrition packaging, regardless of brand, to TerraCycle to be recycled for free, as GU covers all shipping costs. This includes gel, chews, stroopwafel and drink packets. As the program matured, individuals were also given the option to drop off their empty performance nutrition packaging at a number of participating run, bike and outdoor shops throughout the United States.   “Over the past six years, the Performance Nutrition Recycling Program has offered health-conscious, eco-minded individuals a way to responsibly enjoy the endurance products they need without sacrificing convenience or sustainability,” said TerraCycle CEO and Founder, Tom Szaky.  “Reaching this recycling milestone shows how dedicated GU athletes are to making the world greener, which is a huge win for both our communities and shared environment.   The Performance Nutrition Recycling Program is ongoing and open to any interested individual, race organizer, retailer, school, office, or community organization.
