With all the talk about the rising consumer demand for recycled content, many companies are now thinking about how they can advance their sustainability strategies—and sharpen profitability—with more use of recycled content in all areas of their supply chain.

For a while now, companies have turned to post-industrial and post-consumer waste, but it’s time to get creative. Big brands are pushing the envelope and are now repurposing ocean bound single-use plastic waste in their supply chain packaging.

Bre Herbert, Sustainability Lead at ORBIS Corporation, and Bob Peterson, VP of marketing at ORBIS Corporation, join Michael Levans, Group Editorial Director of Peerless Media’s Supply Chain Group, to discuss the innovative ways recycled content is now being put to work in today’s supply chains—and how you can get started.
