Description

Boxhead Plastics are a not-for-profit social enterprise helping the Australian automotive industry recycle more of its plastic waste (read more in this blog post).

They do this by collecting, recycling, and remanufacturing plastic car bumper bars. And to date they have recycled 2.6 tonnes of car bumper bars and sold over 40,000 golf tees.

Your contributions will allow this awesome organisation to drive around town, pick up automotive plastic waste, and recycle and remanufacture it back into amazing products!
