REUSE, RECYCLE & REPURPOSE
Planet Protector prides itself on offering a range of products that can all be responsibly disposed of without having to go to landfill.
Wool liner
Our wool is home compostable, suitable to place in your home green garden bin or to bury in your backyard, releasing valuable nutrients back into the soil. Alternatively, customers find many uses for Woolpack around the home, such as:
- Weed matting
- Pipe lagging
- Pet bedding
- Carpet underlay
- Mulch/worm farming
- Hanging baskets
- Grow micro greens (salad)
- Arts and crafts
- Beehive insulation
- Van panelling
The carton
In both Australia and New Zealand, the corrugated carton is recyclable through your local council. Alternatively, there are many other ways to reuse your carton:
- Cat mansion
- Scratching pole for feline friends
- Packing cartons
- For organisation and storage
- Arts and crafts
The film
We are proud to offer our customers the option of either a home compostable or recyclable food-grade film.
If your liners film has the number 2 recycling symbol, this film can be recycled through Soft Plastics NZ (New Zealand), or through any commercial soft plastics recycling. For Australia, please check with your local council to recycle or dispose of the film.
If your film is marked as compostable, you can bury it in your backyard, add to your compost bin or deposit it into to any commercial composting system.
Refrigerant
Our ice packs are made from a heavy HDPE plastic which can go into the regular kerbside recycling bin. The internal gel is sodium polyacrylate, which is safe for disposal with running water down any commercial or domestic sink.
