Polyprint are proud members of the Soft Plastic Recycling Scheme which is a voluntary product stewardship scheme that received accreditation by the Minister for the Environment in 2018.
All of Polyprint's products are 100% recyclable so we want to see recycling become widespread throughout New Zealand.
Your soft plastic bags and wrappers are recycled at Future Post and Second Life Plastics.
Future Post turns your plastic into fence posts, vegetable garden frames and other products.
Soft plastic packaging includes bread bags, frozen food bags, toilet paper packaging, confectionery and biscuit wrap, chip bags, pasta and rice bags, courier envelopes, shopping bags, sanitary hygiene packaging — basically anything made of plastic which can be scrunched into a ball.
You can find more information on the soft plastics recycling website recycling.kiwi.nz and keep informed on facebook.com/softplasticrecycling.
