We all have that forgotten device, that tablet or phone we swore we'd use again, but never did. It's not just about recycling. It's about making a difference and turning that old device into more than just a forgotten item.

What better way to kick off #RecyclingWeek than with the spotlight on SmartLabel and The Recycling Partnership’s Recycle Check, which was just featured in Axios. “Just because a product says it's recyclable, doesn't necessarily mean it's recyclable where you live," said our Sr. Director of SmartLabel, Rishi Banerjee. For products that participate in SmartLabel and Recycle Check, a quick scan of the SmartLabel QR code can show local recycling rules on your favorite products and whether they belong in your recycling bin. This game-changing initiative can help address some of the confusion surrounding #recycling. With the recycling rate in the U.S. at just 32%, SmartLabel’s partnership with The Recycling Partnership is a step forward for a more sustainable future.

Revolutionizing Recycling: The Future is Here In recent years, we've seen a growing awareness of environmental issues and a push towards more sustainable practices. However, the recycling industry, particularly in bottle and can redemption, has faced significant challenges: 1. Inefficient sorting processes 2. High error rates leading to financial losses 3. Long wait times discouraging consumer participation 4. Rising labor costs putting pressure on redemption centers At Recycletek, we believe technology can play a crucial role in overcoming these hurdles. That's why we developed the EcoCount3, an AI-powered recycling solution that's changing the game: • Processes up to 1000 containers per minute • Accurately identifies and sorts redeemable containers • Reduces error rates and associated financial losses • Minimizes wait times, encouraging more recycling • Allows redemption centers to optimize their operations But it's not just about efficiency. The EcoCount3 is about empowering consumers, supporting local businesses, and most importantly, promoting a cleaner, more sustainable future. Imagine a world where recycling is quick, easy, and rewarding for everyone involved. That's the world we're working towards, one container at a time. We're excited to be part of this positive change and invite you to join the conversation. How do you envision technology shaping the future of recycling? What other areas of sustainability could benefit from innovative solutions? #Recycling #Sustainability #GreenTech #AI #Innovation #CircularEconomy

Reduce, reuse, recycle! ♻ It's now officially not only a slogan kids learn in school, but the approach of the European Parliament towards packaging. The aim is to tackle waste, standardize rules throughout the Union and promote circular economy. The milestones: by 2030, the amount of packaging should have decreased 5% ➡ by 2035 by 10% ➡ and by 2040 by 15% The Council still needs to approve the regulations, but at Packhelp you can count us in for the ride. These are the things we help our customers achieve on a daily basis and it's not just a business, but a mission to make the world a more sustainable place. If you want more intel on how we can help you go next level (and meet the new regulations at the same time!) feel free to write me! #packaging #cirulareconomy #sustainability #packhelp

Who doesn’t like a good Pun? If not, are we even friends? 😂 So in hopes to chuck a wee smile on your face. Let us appreciate this little gem of a pun 😁 While also ticking a couple of my #sustainability messages. Which is creating awarensss for packaging & sustainability. Which just so happens to be in the form of PJ’s out of all places👌🏽 BUT…. On a serious note. That type of packaging is actually recyclable into wonderful products by the awesome team at saveBOARDz So while I appreciate a good pun. I also appreciate good recycling ♻️ #packaging #sustainability #puns

When it comes to on–pack labeling, how can we balance saving space on a package with providing specific recycling instructions? ♻️📲 That’s where our 4th trend—dynamic labels—comes in. 📲♻️ With the scan of a QR code, a single link can provide consumers with localized, real-time information about recycling every packaging component with a product. In our Packaging Innovations Trends Report, we’re exploring the potential of programs like the partnership between GreenBlue Org’s How2Recycle® (H2R) label and The Recycling Partnership’s Recycle Check QR code for product packaging. Check out the full report to learn more about getting the best of both worlds with analog + digital on-pack instructions: https://lnkd.in/e_RC4tfq #Labeling #Recycling #Sustainability #SustainablePackaging

Ever heard of “HOPECYCLING”? Definition: The moment when you’re holding something to be recycled but aren’t quite sure if it’s recyclable. Despite the doubt, your hope to make the right decision nudges you to toss it into the recycling bin even though you have no idea if it’s recycleable. It’s someone else’s problem then. It’s a scene we all play out, driven by good intentions but clouded by confusion. At Rocket Industrial, we believe it’s high time for more clarity. The truth is, many times it’s a more important goal to PACKAGE WITH LESS than to try to recycle. This isn’t meant to dimish recycling efforts, it’s meant to champion using packaging more intelligently, more seriously, and more responsibly. We’re not just here to provide leading packaging solutions; we’re here to spark a conversation, to spread the knowledge needed to recycle strategically. It’s about turning that hopeful toss into a confident, informed action. We're on a mission, not just to provide clarity in the recycling saga, but also to foster a culture where making smart packaging choices is as clear as the fresh air on a crisp Fall day. Cheers to a world where we recycle, upcycle, downcycle, and CYCLE CYCLE…not just hope to do so in an effort to clear our conscience. #HopeCycling #RocketIndustrial
