The discount giant has teamed up with leading CPG manufacturer Proctor & Gamble and international recycling provider TerraCycle to offer free in-store recycling collection for empty hair care, skincare and cosmetic packaging at 25 of its stores.
“Walmart and P&G are working together to strengthen recycling solutions and educate their communities about the importance of sustainability by offering convenient in-store drop-off points for haircare, skincare and cosmetic packaging,” said Tom Szaky, CEO and Founder of TerraCycle. “The innovative collaboration offers consumers the opportunity to divert traditionally non-recyclable beauty waste from landfills in a convenient way.”
Walmart has committed to becoming a “regenerative” company and has released detailed progress towards its goal in its recently released 2022 “Environmental, Social and Governance Summary Report.
