Recycling solution for ear plugs, Zero Waste Box™

A Zero Waste Box™ is a complete and convenient solution which includes the storage, shipping and recycling of a particular type of waste that isn’t currently recycled through local councils or traditional recycling facilities.

• Reduce the amount of waste that you send to landfill or incinerate
• Recycle the non recyclable and reduce your carbon footprint
• Improving your organisation's sustainability can boost your corporate image and improve employee engagement and satisfaction

Use this Zero Waste Box™ to recycle: Foam and plastic earplugs. Please do not include protective masks, disposable garments, gloves, eyewear, respirators and hard hats.

How it works:
• Order - Select a Zero Waste Box™ based on what and how much you would like to recycle.
• Collect - Fill your box with the accepted waste and seal the box with adhesive tape.
• Ship - Contact ups.com/nl, 020-5040500 or use the pre-paid UPS shipping label affixed to the back of your box, send your filled box to TerraCycle® for recycling. UPS requires a minimum of 24 hours’ notice and does pick ups Monday to Friday between 9 am and 5 pm. Pick-ups can be arranged online or by telephone. All shipments are carbon-neutral, meaning the carbon emissions released during transport will be offset.
• Reorder - Continue to recycle and reorder a new Zero Waste Box™. Your collected waste will find a second life as recycled materials, reducing the need to extract virgin materials and depleting resources.

Everything collected through the Zero Waste Box™ system is sorted and processed into raw materials that can be reused instead of being sent to landfill.

Cardboard boxes are made from 84% recycled material. Box container and liner are 100% recyclable.
