Nordstrom, Beautycycle Expand Recycling Program

摘要

In partnership with Beautycycle, Nordstrom has launcheda beauty take back and recycling program in Canada, acceptingall brands of beauty packaging.Each year, more than 120 billion units of plastic packagingare produced by the beauty industry, but less than ninepercent gets recycled. That’s because many municipal recyclingcenters do not accept beauty materials and packaging,as they often contain a mix of materials that are not locallyrecyclable. Nordstrom and Beautycycle hope to changethat and aim to take back 100 tons of hard-to-recycle beautypackaging by 2025 to ensure it gets recycled.
