You Can Finally Recycle Your Quo Beauty Empties at Shoppers Drug Mart

Just in time for Earth Month, Shoppers Drug Mart has teamed up with Quo Beauty and internationally renowned recycling company TerraCycle to launch a new recycling program.

The cosmetics industry alone is estimated to produce 120 billion units of packaging per year, and the majority of it is unable to be recycled by curbside recycling services.

Living up to Shoppers’ promise to help reduce this plastic waste, the Quo Beauty Cosmetics Free Recycling Program will allow customers to mail in eligible empty Quo Beauty components after registering on the TerraCycle site and downloading a prepaid shipping label.
