IT’S EASY TO RECYCLE AND
COMPOST PACKAGING

Look for the label.

Each label tells you:

  • Which packaging material or other disposable component from each US Foods® product is recyclable or compostable
  • How to prepare it for recycling
  • Where to look for more information

Recycling

US Foods is partnering with How2Recycle®, which provides a U.S.- and Canada-based, standardized labeling system that clearly communicates recycling and composting instructions. How2Recycle is a project of the Sustainable Packaging Coalition®, a membership-based group that brings together businesses, educational institutions and government agencies to broaden the understanding of packaging sustainability and develop meaningful improvements for packaging solutions.

Composting

The on-package How2Compost label identifies the package as BPI-certified compostable. It includes a helpful URL for more information about composting. The program is an extension of the highly successful How2Recycle label program. Learn more about the How2Compost label at www.How2Compost.info
