As the first recycling solution for anaerobic adhesives, Henkel and TerraCycle partnered to give customers the option to use a postage-paid recycling box to fill with empty Loctiteadhesive containers. The package goes to TerraCycle, where the containers are thermally treated, then turned into new plastic products. Companies interested in participating should contact their local Loctite distributor or visit Henkel’s recycling page.

The potato chip bags and Capri Sun pouches are part of specialized recycling programs run by TerraCycle, a company based in New Jersey. Richardson ships boxes packed with the recycling material to the company’s processing center. The program is free, and the company has used recycled materials to produce new goods, such as pens made from recycled pens. The company has about 5,000 recycling customers in Maryland, according to TerraCycle spokeswoman Lauren Taylor.

Cigarette recycling containers are being installed in The Loop which will help keep cigarette butts out of the streets, sidewalks, and sewers. The cigarette butts are then sent to TerraCycle recycling center and melted into plastic, which is then molded into a variety of concrete products.

Henkel, manufacturer of adhesives, sealants and functional coatings, including the Loctite brand, is partnering with TerraCycle to offer a recycling solution for anaerobic adhesives. Through the Adhesive Recycling Program, Henkel customers can purchase a postage-paid recycling box that they fill with empty Loctite adhesive containers and send to TerraCycle for processing.

Did you know that cigarette butts can actually be recycled? I didn’t either until a very short time ago. Did you know that one cigarette butt contaminates up to one hundred litres of water? And that’s not the only negative impact that cigarette waste has on the environment.  With over five trillion cigarette butts littered each year, they are the world’s largest litter problem, and we want to do something about it!

While pet owners often consider the impact packaged pet food has on their pets, the same consideration is not often given to the impact it has on the environment. Pet food company, Earthborn Holistic is aiming to provide food that’s beneficial to both pets and the environment.
