Keep pens & pencils away from young children & pets. Avoid using plantable pencils near pets, as most contain wildflowers. Learn more pet-friendly gardens.
Billions of pencils are sold worldwide, and many end up going down storm drains and into the sea.
And if you’ve ever accidentally stabbed your hand with a pencil, you can imagine how pens harm marine creatures.
Where to Recycle Plastic Pens and Pencils
Terracycle offers a free writing instruments recycling programme, sponsored by industry.
Just order a box for your office, school or community then everyone can deposit unwanted pens, pencils, highlighters, correction fluids, felt-tips pens and erasers.
You can also download a poster to display near the recycling box, and all items are sent off to be made into other things (like park benches).
