Recycline

Recycline is the name behind Preserve...the makers of the "yogurt cup toothbrushes." That's right, their toothbrushes are created using 100% recycled plastic, including Stonyfield Farm yogurt cups.

Their adult-sized toothbrushes are available in seven colors. Each comes in a reusable travel case that makes life much easier and greener, despite which of the seven color toothbrushes you decide upon.

And if your children want to use a yogurt cup to sparkle their teeth, there is a Preserve Jr. line for children ages 2 to 8. To create these animal-inspired toothbrushes, Preserve has partnered with the National Wildlife Federation. Each highlights a different endangered species on the packaging (another great travel case) and design of the Jr. toothbrush. Currently available are the St. Lucia Parrot, Galapagos Tortoise, and Tiger...shown below.

When your family is finished with their Preserve toothbrushes, their life is not quite over...there's more recycling to be done! Preserve toothbrushes, razor handles and tongue cleaners can have a second life as plastic lumber for park benches, decks and more. All you need to do is use the postage-paid label to return them to Recycline to be reborn into a park bench...a yogurt cup-toothbrush-park bench!
