Hero™ I Was A Milk Jug™ trash bags are made from 50% post consumer recycled material including recycled milk jugs
Making a difference
Our goal is to change the entire trash bag category to all recycled product — pushing the limits by eventually moving all trash bags to 80% recycled content.
Trash bags are a $3.8 billion category, with approximately 12.7 billion trash bags used by Americans each year. If all were made from 80% recycled plastic, we would reduce new plastic production by over 10 billion trash bags each year.
