"There are 12 billion pounds of flexible packaging used each year and less than 2% is captured in recycling. We need to reuse a lot of this flexible plastic packaging and consumers want us to use this material.” Remarks from Diane Herndon of @Purina at #refocus19.

Members of The Materials Recovery for the Future Collaborative share a simple vision: Flexible packaging is recycled curbside and the recovery community captures value from it. #MRFF #Recycling
