OfficeMax is offering new yet familiar products created by TerraCycle. The newest products is a pencil case made from discarded containers of Capri Sun juice. TerraCycle, a company that strives to innovate products from "waste stream" materials will be providing a whole line for OfficeMax - other products include binders made from 100 percent reused cardboard, trash cans made from recycled e-waste plastic and non-toxic cleaning products packaged in old soda bottles.
TerraCycle is also partnering with the community to make their products possible. With respect to the pencil cases, TerraCycle approached schools to assist in generating enough Capri Sun containers, paying the schools two cents for every pouch collected. So, the school's garbage has become a new product at OfficeMax. Read the full story at GreenBiz.com
