It is time to wrap up our Trash or Treasure recycling project. Please send all candy wrappers to the boxes in your buildings at some point today. Below is more information and a video on what is done with the candy wrappers during the recycling process. Thank you all for participating!
During processing, candy wrappers start their Second Life® as part of the circular economy. The wrappers are sorted by material, cleaned, and ground into small pieces. The plastic pieces then go down a long conveyor belt and into a machine that heats the shredded material, turning it into very small balls called plastic pellets. These pellets are used to make new plastic items!
