Recycling Strides
The EKOCYCLE brand was developed to educate consumers about everyday recycling choices and empower their purchasing decisions as part of a social change movement.
The initiative supports recycling by helping consumers recognize that items they consider waste today may be a part of a lifestyle product they can use tomorrow. With a dedication to supporting a more sustainable environment, the EKOCYCLE movement is committed to identifying products, such as plastic bottles and aluminum cans that can be repurposed into recycled content for lifestyle products through the help of some of the industry‘s hottest trend-setters.
