What are #5 Plastics?

When you read ‘#5’ on our website, or find a recycling symbol with a ‘5’ in its center, we’re talking about polypropylene.

We chose to work with #5 plastics because it is uncommon for our local recycling to pick them up. This allows us to reimagine and reuse plastic that might have otherwise ended up in the trash.

Common Types

• deli cups
• to-go containers
• yogurt tubs
• fast food cups
• pill bottles
