We are excited to launch our plastic upcycling campaign to turn type 2 and 5 plastics into new furniture for our campus. Let's give these plastics a new life and make a positive change together!
How to Participate:
Look for type 2 (HDPE) and type 5 (PP) plastics in your daily items.
Drop off your clean and sorted plastics at designated collection points across campus:
-
Academic Concourse (opposite to Sci/Home & Engineering Commons)
-
Shaw Auditorium G/F (elevator next to HFT Life)
-
LG5 outdoor escalator & outside Student Society Rooms
-
Outside Starbucks
-
Hall 1-9 and GGT Hall lobbies
-
Hall 2, 6, 8 Activity Rooms
-
GGT MPH
-
All Staff Quarter recycling areas
Tips for Recycling:
-
Check the bottom of your plastic containers for the recycling symbol with the numbers 2 or 5.
-
Remove all labels and stickers on your plastics for better upcycling results.
-
Ensure the plastics are clean and dry before dropping them off.
Let's work together to reduce waste and create something beautiful out of what would have been discarded.
