How2Recycle is the most recognized on-pack labeling system that clearly communicates disposal instructions to the public. We aim to eliminate consumer confusion and drive responsible packaging design to improve the quality of recycled materials.
Our coalition of forward thinking brand, manufacturer, and converter members are empowering consumers through awareness and transparency around proper disposal.
We’re not just improving our label, we’re improving the recycling system to drive better environmental outcomes.
See how we’re moving How2Recycle Forward.
