Flexible Packaging Mailback Tutorial
Flexible packaging recycling for your lab
How Does the Flexible Packaging Mailback Program Work?
Set Up Your Carbin
Assemble the box by adding a liner, then folding and taping the bottom.
Place it in a convenient, visible, high traffic area of your lab.
Collect Flexible Packaging
Discard any kind of polyolefin flexible packaging.
Do not dispose of any flexible packaging that does not stretch or that makes noise when crumpled.
Ship or Schedule Pickup
Seal the Carbin with packing tape before attaching and taping the lid.
Return your Carbin using the prepaid return labels.
Don't forget to register your Carbin on the Carbin Counter Dashboard.
