    Each version of our store drop-off recyclable pouch from our TruRenu® sustainable flexible packaging portfolio meets the requirements for the How2Recycle® store drop-off program2. Follow these four easy steps to complete the recycling process.

    1. Make sure pouch is completely empty
    2. Shake out any loose crumbs or food residue
    3. Remove any remaining liquid inside pouch
    4. Drop off at your participating local store

    2Brands and companies who are interested in using our recyclable pouches will need to become members of the How2Recycle® store drop-off program in order to use the label on their own custom-printed pouch.

    Not only are store drop-off pouches recyclable, but they also help reduce your carbon footprint through extending shelf life to reduce food waste, they use less plastic in the first place, they’re lighter-weight which helps lower greenhouse gas emissions and fossil fuel consumption, and they use less water and energy during manufacturing.
