TerraCycle Collects Scotch Tape for Reuse, Expands Into London
They just keep growing! TerraCycle will expand its upcycling operations to the U.K. and Europe. They have developed a new project, partnering with 3M. Instead of upcycling recycled tape dispensers, TerraCyle will collect, empty, and send the dispensers back to 3M for reuse! Now that's the power of GREEN!

TerraCycle to UPCYCLE its revenue!
TerraCycle Inc. is just eight years old. It was founded by a Princeton University freshman named Tom Szaky. However, today, this company is growing FAST. According to GreenBiz.com, "Chief Executive Tom Szaky said the firm expected sales of its "up-cycled" bags, pencil cases, and garden products to hit $10 million (£6.1m) this year, before increasing to $50 million during 2010." So how'd he do it? With passion for sustainable living and a cool new word for recycling. The term "upcycle" means to reuse non-recyclable waste materials and create eco-friendly products like a "Drink Pouch Backpack" or "Cookie Wrapper Pencil Case." Watch for this growing GREEN company!
