How to Recycle or Reuse Your Packaging

EcoEnclose offers stickers in a number of different facestocks - 100% recycled paper, coated paper and plastic. Regardless of the facestock, stickers are not recyclable in isolation. The question to ask is - how do they effect the recyclability of the substrate they are placed on. In most cases, the package they are on can be recycled as it normally would.
