Global Recycling Day: Small Actions, Big Impact!

♻️ Global Recycling Day: Small Actions, Big Impact! ♻️

Today is Global Recycling Day, a reminder that sustainability isn’t just about grand gestures—it’s about the everyday choices we make to reduce waste and protect our planet.

At B & C, we believe that every action counts. That’s why we’ve embedded a culture of recycling, reusing, and repurposing in our manufacturing facility—because sustainability isn’t a one-time effort, it’s a mindset.

Here are a few simple yet effective ways we integrate recycling into our daily operations (and maybe these will inspire you too!):

✅ Recycling damaged / un-useable cardboard with JJ Richards—keeping packaging waste out of landfill.

✅ Repurposing plastic pallets—selling or giving them away, with proceeds going towards well-deserved coffees and treats for our team! ☕

✅ Donating wooden pallets to local craftspeople—turning waste into art and furniture.

✅ Recycling metal swarf from our tool room with Sims, ensuring valuable materials get a second life.

✅ Giving away our used plywood crates—now repurposed as possum houses, cubby houses, film set props, and more! Very popular.

✅ Selling large bulk bags for bottle collection or garden waste—again, coffee fund approved!

✅ Using recycled polymers in manufacturing and encouraging customers to adopt circular solutions.

We love seeing how businesses and individuals are making an impact, and we’d love to hear from you! What recycling initiatives do you have in place?

Let’s make small changes today that lead to a big difference tomorrow. Every action—no matter how small—helps keep waste out of landfill. Let’s do this together! ♻️ 🌍
