How often do we throw products in the trash without thinking about whether they can be recycled instead?
Below are five common products that are often thrown away that can be recycled for a cleaner planet.
Toothbrush: The plastic that toothbrushes are made of can be recycled into all sorts of products. You can also recycle toothpaste tubes.
Wine cork: Cork that is made from cork oak can be recycled into many different products, for example, flooring and shoes. There are companies that accept cork for recycling in Europe.
Eyeglasses: Several eyeglass companies accept old and broken glasses to recycle them into new glasses.
Carpet: If you have a compost pile, you can use old textile carpets for insulation.
Ink cartridge: Nowadays, many manufacturers take back used cartridges for recycling.
We at Treefling care about the environment, which is why we only use plastics in our packaging that are recyclable.
