POT RECYCLE

If you don’t already reuse your plastic plant and seedling pots, Mitre 10 will take them! They’re closing the loop with the nationwide roll-out of Pot Recycle, an initiative to stop pots and plant labels made from plastic ID 5 (polypropylene) from ending up in landfill. The pots need to be dirt-free to avoid contaminating the recycling process. Simply wash your pots and plant labels, and return to any Mitre 10 store. The pots are then shredded and melted into resin before being moulded into new pots. mitre10.co.nz
