About TerraCycle:
TerraCycle is an international leader in innovative sustainability solutions, pioneering first-of-their-kind platforms in recycling, recycled materials, and reuse. Operating in 20 countries, including 12 in Europe, TerraCycle collaborates with manufacturers, retailers, and end-users to implement turnkey recycling programs. These public-facing services address hundreds of everyday waste streams that traditional waste management companies typically cannot recycle.

In 2019, TerraCycle introduced Loop, a groundbreaking platform designed to transition brands, retailers, and consumers from disposable to durable supply chains. Loop enables consumers to responsibly shop for a wide variety of commonly used products in reusable packaging. Since its inception, Loop has grown into the leading global reuse platform, currently available in France, the United States, and Japan.

Both TerraCycle and Loop have garnered significant recognition, receiving hundreds of awards and being featured in prominent global media outlets such as CNN, Wall St. Journal, Reuters.com, New York Times, Forbes, Time, and many others.
