Amherst Label Liner Recycling Initiative

As part of our effort to increase our sustainability practices, we have launched a liner recycling program! Currently focusing on clear release liner only (PET liner), we are collecting liner at several locations across New England. After a full truck load of liner is accumulated, the material will be recycled with the help of our vendors into either new label materials, PET products, or other innovative circular solutions. If you currently dispose of release liner in your dumpster, recycling could offset your disposal costs while simultaneously offsetting your carbon footprint!

Recycling 1 full bin of clear liner will offset 1.93 tons of CO2 emissions, when compared to landfill disposal.


HOW TO RECYCLE YOUR LABEL RELEASE LINER

COLLECT IT!

• Save your clear label liner after label application.

• The liner MUST be kept CLEAN and DRY.

• Liner MUST be kept separate from any other liner or waste.

• Liner MUST NOT be on a core, must not have any tape, labels or other materials attached.

• It is imperative that no other types of paper or plastics get mixed in with the liner. Any cross contamination or dirt can ruin the entire collection and prevent it from being recycled.


DROP IT OFF!

Please contact us to get drop-off times and contact information for each location. You can also ship your liner to us for recycling, and if we are in your area, we’ll be happy to pick it up!
