What is Flexible Packaging?
Flexible packaging is made up of bags, envelopes, pouches, sachets, wraps, etc., made of easily yielding materials such as film, foil, or paper sheeting which, when filled and sealed, acquires pliable shape.
Recycle Flexible Plastic Packaging in Your Recycling Container
Flexible plastic is the second largest packaging material in the United States. It is lightweight and made from plastic film and very thin layers of additional materials such as metal. Residents may now place it in curbside recycling carts.
By properly recycling and adding flexible packaging materials you are helping to protect the environment!
It increases waste diversion from landfills and reduces litter, as well as supports the local economy and jobs.
Please make sure these items are empty, clean and dry before placing in the curbside container.
