Plastic Bag Facts Recycling and Reuse
27 Mar 2010
Recycling Fact: Recycling plastic bags
and wraps is important because this valuable material can be made into
dozens of useful new products such as low-maintenance fencing and
decking, building and construction products, shopping carts, and of
course, new bags!
Make sure bags are clean and empty. Do not
include used plastic food wrap, bags with food residue, or material that
has been painted or glued, as other substances can contaminate the
recycled material.
Reuse Fact: More than 90 percent of consumers
reuse their plastic grocery bags at home for purposes ranging from
waste basket liners to lunch bags to pet clean up.
