RECYCLE YOUR EMPTY PLASTIC BEAUTY PRODUCTS WITH RECYCLE ME BY THG.
It's easy, it's free of charge, and we'll recycle all your empties, no matter what the brand.
HOW IT HELPS THE PLANET
Recycle Me was created to help customers to reduce the amount of hard-to recycle plastic beauty products ending up in landfill.
Many beauty products are make up of complex plastic materials that can't be recycled via your usual, local kerbside collections.
The Recycle Me scheme takes any plastic beauty packaging, no matter what the brand, and we will recycle it into something new, reducing waste and preventing plastic pollution which can be harmful to wildlife and the environment.
