Wonder’s 2021 Wonder Recycling Rewards
The launch of Wonder’s 2021 Wonder Recycling Rewards program saw over 1,000 schools and 400,000 kids participate in the recycling of bread bags and soft plastics.
An impressive 6,036 kilograms of soft plastics were collected, which is the equivalent to 1.7million bread bags that might otherwise have ended up in landfill. In return for their efforts, Wonder is rewarding five lucky schools this November with Replas Exercise Equipment made from an average of 90% recycled plastic material.
This is to encourage kids to mix fitness with fun during their time at school. Construction has begun on the active play areas and they will be ready in time for National Recycling Week.
Utilising state-of-the-art technology, approximately 2-3 tonnes of the remaining plastic collected through the Wonder Recycling Rewards program will be recycled into Polyrok, a sustainable recycled plastic aggregate in concrete. Wesley College in Victoria will be receiving this recycled material to be laid under synthetic turf in their school play area.
