Re: Plastic reed packaging

The advice I got from Legere is that it does depend on the municipality. If your recycling center requires a stamped number upon the item, then the Legere reed cannot be recycled because placing a stamp on the reed impedes its ability to be a reed. However, they are made of food-grade polypropylene and are technically recyclable. Further (according to Legere), a heavy user would go through roughly 15 grams per year which is less than the weight of a single water bottle. Since Legere cannot use old reeds or recycled material for new reeds, they do not have their own recycling program.
