"Is it possible to make a toothbrush that does the job without contributing to landfill waste? While traditional consumer product companies completely over-design the simple toothbrush, Recycline offers a brush that is well designed andthathelps consumers conserve the Earth's resources. The birth of Recycline was motivated by the need to stimulate the use of recycled materials to assist community recycling efforts and to help assure their success. People were recycling, companies were collecting the waste, and products were being made from those materials. What was lacking was an increase in the consumption of the products made from recycled materials – the final step that makes the recycling effortsworthwhile. All of Recycline’s Preserve brand products are made with 100% recycled plastic handles, in part with recycled Stonyfield Farm yogurt cups.And Recycline is the only U.S. toothbrush and razor manufacturer to provide consumers with a postage-paid recycling mailer so they can easily return their products and the packagingfor recycling. All returned Preserve oral care products and packaging are then recycled into plastic lumber which is used to make picnic tables, decks, boardwalks and other durable products.So those Stonyfield Farm yogurt cups will enjoy a second life as a Preserve product, and a third as plastic lumber."
