SFH #013: 450,000 Square Feet of Material Out of Landfills

Did you know that over 600,000 tons of vinyl from banners and billboards end up in landfills each year?

Today on The School For Humanity, we have Kari who is the President of Relan to talk about how their organization is putting a dent into this metric.

Relan helps progressive companies meet their sustainability goals by recycling banners or billboards that would otherwise be thrown away and turns them into useful marketing items.

These 'new' marketing items are beneficial for brands because they can not only raise awareness about their organization, but they can position their company as environmentally conscious.

To date, they have helped their partners keep over 450,000 square feet of material out of landfills, close the loop on a current waste stream, and benefit their triple bottom line. As well, they've been named to the GameChangers500 list as part of the world's top For-Benefit companies.
