HOW TO RECYCLE

SHIP RESPONSIBLY™

Our goal as a company is to not only create effective and reliable insulated packaging, but also to provide realistic disposal options for consumers.

RECYCLE

Each piece of the KODIAKOTTON® natural fiber insulated shipper is recyclable. Follow the instructions below to properly dispose the packaging.

THE BOX

Simply flatten the box and recycle with the rest of your cardboard and paper.

THE LINERS

Our natural fiber pads are fully recyclable. Remove them from the poly film and recycle.

POLY FILM

After separating the poly film from the natural fiber pads, the poly film can be recycled with the rest of your plastic bags.

The average American disposes 70 pounds of textiles every year (Council for Textile Recycling).

As a 360 degree recycling program, KODIAKOOLER® is working to partner with local textile recycling programs across the country to give consumers a more convenient disposal option for our cotton liners.

BIODEGRADABLE

KODIAKOTTON® Natural Fiber Pads are biodegradable and compostable as tested by an independent third-party laboratory using ASTM test standards.

Sometimes recycling is complicated and inconvenient.

With natural fiber insulation, you don’t have to feel guilty throwing away the packaging. Our liners fully biodegrade in 27 weeks.

Our Natural Fiber Insulated Liners are made primarily of cotton. According to a study on cotton’s biodegradability, cotton biodegrades much faster than synthetic fibers because it is made of cellulose (natural, plant-based fibers).

Simply put, cotton is a plant and therefore follows a normal cycle of nature. It will naturally go back to the soil from which it was made. So if recycling isn’t an option for you, go ahead and throw the liners away, or better yet, compost them!
