Recycling is the key to a true green future for California retailers.
Plastic bags are easy to hate, but when they are recycled properly they become “green” gold: A real, long-term, sustainable solution whose time has come, and is in fact already working in Southern California.
Trash goes in – new plastic material comes out. That’s the way it’s done in Vernon, California at Command Packaging’s recycling center, a Nashville Wraps Green Way® supplier. Plastics are collected from a variety of industrial and consumer sources and brought into the recycling center as raw materials. These materials would otherwise be destined for the landfill.
