29 Mar 2022 --- US-based nonprofit Pact Collective is being heralded for its work collecting, processing and helping redesign hard-to-recycle plastics for the beauty sector. Environmental personal care company Athr Beauty says the NGOs’ work is the best alternative to major recycling player TerraCycle, branded a greenwashing scheme by environmental activists. Pact Collective works by collecting packaging materials unsuitable for traditional waste management streams and using state-of-the-art technology to recycle them. It also consults with leading industry companies on redesigning these packages to reduce landfilling and energy usage.
