TerraCycle is an innovative recycling business that upcycles and resells collected materials to be used in new products. Ultimately, TerraCycle will shred and melt down old toothbrushes and toothpaste tubes and mold the material to create a beautiful playground for a children’s hospital. If Anderson Dental wins, the playground will be installed at the Cincinnati Children’s Hospital.

To build the playground, used dental products and discarded packaging were combined with high-density polyethylene, said Sue Kauffman, a spokeswoman for TerraCycle, the Trenton, New Jersey-based recycling company that built the playground.

Wolf passionately pointed out the unacceptable sea of plastic created by the beauty industry and called on fellow beauty brands to dial up action. With the first shower-safe paper bottle, Seed Phytonutrients is revolutionizing environmental sustainability. The brand packaging is composed of 100 percent post-consumer recycled paper and a post-consumer recycled liner — which is 60 percent less plastic than a typical bottle — and the pump can be recycled through partner TerraCycle. Additionally, all formula ingredients are 93-100 percent natural origin.

Similarly, beauty and health items such as lipsticks, contact lenses and product packaging are often thrown out with general waste, most probably due to a lack of knowing how to mindfully bin then. Organizations such as TerraCycle specialize in recycling and up-cycling hard-to-manage waste. After logging your product on a website, you can print off a free postage label and send your unwanted goods off, knowing they will be disposed in a eco-friendly way.

Matthew Sharon, 10, a student at John H. West Elementary School in the Plainedge school district, gathered with his classmates teachers and staff, Tuesday, June 11, 2019, to celebrate their new playground made entirely out of recycled dental products. The school won the Colgate & ShopRite Recycled playground challenge, by collecting the most dental products. Students and district officials were joined by representatives from Colgate-Palmolive, ShopRite and TerraCycle, for a ribbon-cutting ceremony commemorating the unique playground.

It’s the milkman for the 21st century, with customers from Pittsburgh to Philadelphia already having signed up online this spring. Founder and CEO Tom Szaky, who spun Loop off from his Trenton recycling company, TerraCycle, believes this is the right moment for a new way of grocery shopping.

Tom Szaky, the founder and CEO of TerraCycle, is known for recycling the unrecyclable—cigarette butts, chewing gum, diapers—but last year, as he watched the business model for recycling crater (in part because it’s not profitable to recycle many of the new, lighter, more flexible plastics), he had an epiphany.
