The Burlington County Department of Solid Waste and Recycling in the US has unveiled a new initiative aimed at recycling plastic drink carriers.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The initiative is launched in partnership with PakTech, a plastic carrier manufacturer, and two local breweries.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

This eco-friendly programme provides residents with designated drop-off locations for their used carriers. \u00a0<\/p>\n

Starting this month, residents can bring their used plastic drink carriers to the Burlington County Resource Recovery Complex in Florence.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Residents can also take their carriers to participating local breweries, Farm Truck Brewing and Zed\u2019s Beer, both of which use PakTech carriers and form part of the company\u2019s recycling programme.\u00a0<\/p>\n

PakTech carriers are made from 100% recycled plastics and are commonly used by breweries and drink and food brands, including Pepsi, Kirkland, Kraft\/Heinz, Colgate-Palmolive, and Ocean Spray.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
