Doing the right thing is getting easier by the day, and there’s something therapeutic about putting cartons in the recycling bin for curb side collection. Once it’s been repulped, a carton can come back as tissue products. In any case, a Tetra Pak carton is simply too good for a garbage can.

Tetra Pak knows that recycling is very important. We are looking for ways to aggressively expand carton recycling within the next three years. We’ve come a long way since we’ve started carton recycling programs in the US in 1999. Today, 20% of the total US residents across 26 states (and growing) have access to carton recycling. Globally, 25 billion packages were recycled last year.
