Boro-Wide Recycling Corp.

At New York Fashion Week, Plastics Make It Possible® unveiled a vending machine that dispenses limited edition designer T-shirt made with recycled plastics in exchange for recycling a plastic bottle.  This campaign is designed to show the public how their recyclables can be reused to create something totally different.  Using a plastic bottle as currency to buy a new T-shirt made from bottles just like it, really drives the point home.  This is also used to celebrate the growing role of recycled plastics in fashion during New York Fashion WeekPlastics Make it Possible® has partnered with New York fashion designer Allison Parris for the debut of the vending machine, which will be located south of Columbus Circle on 8th Ave between 57th and 58th streets in New York City from September 9-11.

The T-shirts feature an original design by Parris, who is one of the growing number of designers who have embraced recycled plastics as one of the new go-to materials for making stylish clothing and accessories.  For more information about the recycling campaign at New York Fashion Week please visit http://goo.gl/Yuj06O.
