TerraCycle is Eliminating the Idea of Waste&reg; by developing solutions to recycle the unrecyclable&mdash;items that aren&rsquo;t typically curbside recyclable like cosmetics, candy wrappers, chewing gum, and even cigarette butts.
 We work with environmentally-conscious startups and some of the world&rsquo;s biggest brands to recycle their products into raw material, which is then sold to manufacturing companies. Those manufacturers then use the materials to make new products like outdoor furniture and decking, plastic shipping pallets, tubes for construction applications, playground surface covers, and more. We&rsquo;ve even recycled ocean plastic into shampoo bottles and toothpaste tubes into playgrounds!
