Recycling and Waste Barrel with Swing Lid

Key features of the Recycling and Waste Barrel with Swing Lid include:

• This product is manufactured from the purest type-2 HDPE recycled plastic available on the market today. Most of the materials used in its manufacture are post-consumer waste, such as milk jugs. A pound of lumber can be recycled up to ten times, thus extending the product's lifespan.
• Heavy-duty liners make maintenance easy.
• To prevent fading from sun exposure and weathering, premium-grade resins and ultra violet inhibitors are added to the lumber.
• ADA-compliant, and designed for indoor and outdoor use. They meet all LEED requirements for recycled content.
• Plastic lumber can last decades, and with our engineered products built with commercial-grade building techniques, the furnishings themselves can last even longer.
• Unlike wood, plastic lumber won't absorb moisture, causing it to rot. Despite having many of the same characteristics as wood, it doesn't require any maintenance at all!
• The product is manufactured in the USA.
• Suitable for playgrounds, parks, golf courses, schools, and college campuses, these durable trash barrels are ideal for outdoor settings. These colorful trash containers are also a great addition to busy pedestrian centers, malls, and boardwalks along the coast.

About Plastic Lumber:

In terms of recycled HDPE (#2) plastics, purity makes all the difference in the world when it comes to performance. As a result of the high purity count in Type2 Material, our plastic lumber has a great deal of long-term durability, which can last for many years, and at 97 percent recycled material, our plastic lumber can be recycled a second time.

Compared to other materials, recycled plastic offers color stability, does not rust or crack, and is less expensive than the alternatives. The process is also eco-friendly since recycling plastic diverts waste from landfills and reduces our dependence on fossil fuels by diverting waste from landfills to recycling centers.

Unlike wood, Type2 Material is impervious to insects, moisture, and mold. This means it will not rot, splinter, or become the dinner of pests in the same way that wood may do. UV inhibitors have been added to keep its colors stable while molecular bonding agents have been added to ensure that it has optimal structural integrity due to its complete molecular linkage.

Here's how it works:

• Recyclables get collected right from your curb; soda bottles, milk jugs or that empty bottle of aspirin. They're then hauled to a material recovery facility to be sorted, crushed and baled.
• Plastic reclaimers then grind the containers into flakes, clean them of any residues and contaminants, and send them along the recycling chain. Manufacturers buy the clean plastic flakes and melt them into pellets adding colorant, UV inhibitors and bonding agents.
• Finally, Type2 Material is extruded to shape, ready to be built into furnishings that close the loop on needless waste. Demanding recycled plastic reduces the use of virgin plastics and our dependence on fossil fuel as a result.
