Josie Maran Cosmetics, Los Angeles, has partnered with TerraCycle, Trenton, New Jersey, to recycle its product packaging. For every shipment of Josie Maran packaging sent to TerraCycle, collectors earn points that can be used to make charitable gifts or converted to cash and donated to a nonprofit, school or charitable organization.
“We are so excited to partner with TerraCycle to further our goal of offering accessible and easy recyclability across our entire product line, all from the comfort of your home,” says Josie Maran, founder and CEO of Josie Maran Cosmetics. “This is one simple step we can take together to make our world a more beautiful place for all.”
Through the Josie Maran Cosmetics Recycling Program, consumers can send in empty cosmetics packaging to be recycled for free. Those looking to participate can sign up on the TerraCycle program page and mail in the packaging using a prepaid shipping label. Once collected, the packaging is cleaned and reprocessed into pellets that can be recycled into new products.
“Josie Maran Cosmetics is giving their customers the unique opportunity to divert waste from landfills by offering them a way to responsibly dispose of their cosmetic packaging,” says Tom Szaky, founder and CEO of TerraCycle. “In turn, by participating in the Josie Maran Cosmetics Recycling Program, consumers can demonstrate their respect for the environment not only through the products that they choose to include in their beauty regimen but also by how the packaging is disposed of.”
