Sustainability Partnerships
Garden City Plastics selectively partners and supports initiatives to advance sustainability within the horticulture industry.
Closed Loop Recycling
Largely, in Australia, plant pots and labels are made from PP5 plastic – a plastic that can be recycled over and over again. However, currently only 8% of discarded plastic found in plant pots is recycled. Garden City Plastics collect, recycle and re-use discarded PP5 plastic plant pots and labels and turn them back into new ones.
