RECYCLING INFRASTRUCTURE BRAND

USING RECYCLED MATERIAL

• Source recycled material to make your package (Walmart has a goal to achieve 20% recycled content in Private Brands plastic packaging by 2025)

• High quality material is available (many high quality items currently use large amounts of recycled material: water bottles, micro-fiber garments, detergent bottles, etc.)

• Identify, qualify and proof vendors

• Some machinery modifications may be required – speak to your production engineers

QUESTIONS

Functional, attractive, and economical plastic products can be designed that are also fully compatible with the recycling infrastructure if:• An appropriate material is used• Design features are considered when designing the package such as:

• Labels• Inks• Adhesives• Colors• Size• Shape
