Throw it Away?

What do they do with all that stuff they used during the Olympics? If you think about all the buildings you would hope they would be put to good use but what about the other things like decorations and signs?

Mannington Mills has partnered with 3M Canada, the folks who supplied the graphics that we saw everywhere from on the sides of buses to billboards. Mannington plans to turn the material into an ingredient they can use to make premium tile flooring.

Mannington already recycles post consumer products from drywall and vinyl composition tile and diverted more than 19 million pounds of previously used flooring and drywall from landfills.

Way to go Mannington in their efforts to recycle and reuse!
