Recycling - It's worth it!

Let's consider the future...

Recycle Week is organised by WRAP under the Recycle Now brand.  The aim of the week is to encourage the public to recycle more, by demonstrating the benefits of recycling items from all around the home. 1

The following facts should make us think about the way we use and re-use our natural resources! 2

  • The average household in the UK creates over a tonne of waste each year, which is about the weight of a small car.
  • If you recycled absolutely everything you could in your bin, you could power a TV for 5000 hours!
  • 1 recycled plastic bottle would save enough energy to power a light bulb for 3 hours.
  • It takes 70% less energy to recycle paper as opposed to making it from raw materials.

What are the advantages of using recycled products?

So, should you make an 'Eco-conscious' decision to use recycled product as part of your own promotional business branding?  Heck - of course!
