new recyclable pump

DID YOU KNOW?

Most pumps are not currently recyclable. This is because they include an internal metal spring in a plastic casing, making them difficult to separate for recycling.

Vaseline’s new recyclable pump replaces the metal spring with one made of #5 plastic, making it possible to dispose of the bottle and pump as one unit by simply placing it directly into the recycling bin (subject to local recycling policies). 

 

Once the lotion bottle is empty, you no longer have to separate and throw the pump away; instead, the entire package can be recycled together. Check this guide to see how your local municipality recycles "#5 Plastic”.
