Curaleaf, a leading provider of consumer products in cannabis, has partnered with Phoenix, Arizona based recycling company, Resinate, to launch a statewide cannabis packaging recycling program.
Resinate’s plastic recycling collection barrels are now available at all Curaleaf AZ dispensaries. Customers can drop off their used plastic packaging in exchange for rewards. A portion of these recycled materials are then used to create recyclable plastic rolling trays known as The Twisted Tray.
Since April 2022, Curaleaf AZ has recycled over 600 lbs of plastic, which equates to approximately 25,000 containers saved from landfills and utilized in the state’s local economy. These are the monthly stats:
– August 2022: 11,350 containers saved from landfills & ecosystems, 227lbs of plastic recycled
