Every year, tons of blue wrap—used to keep medical tools sterile in clinical environments—is landfilled despite the fact that it’s a clean and useful fabric. Circular Blu is collecting this material before it reaches the landfill and converting it into reusable tote bags to create a circular economic solution for one prominent but overlooked plastic material.

Every year, tons of blue wrap—used to keep medical tools sterile in clinical environments—is landfilled despite the fact that it’s a clean and useful fabric. Circular Blu is collecting this material before it reaches the landfill and converting it into reusable tote bags to create a circular economic solution for one prominent but overlooked plastic material.
Why it Matters
Beyond simply giving consumers access to some sustainable, durable and admittedly fetching tote bags, Circular Blu’s methodology for blue wrap is designed to create a circular economy infrastructure that can be applied to other materials as well. Finding a way to close the loop on different streams of plastic means waste stops being waste and starts to become a resource.
Plastic waste is a valuable resource, and we’re missing an opportunity to do more. You can be a part of a positive change. Join the grassroots movement and contact your elected official with the click of a button.
