"Our mission at TerraCycle has always been to eliminate waste, recycle the unrecyclable and use innovative business solutions to make recycling economically viable," said Tom Szaky TerraCycle Founder and CEO. "After turning profitable, we chose to drive growth by raising capital through a Regulation A offering, which was undertaken to fund program expansion and acquisitions of companies that would thrive in TerraCycle US's uniquely public-facing waste ecosystem. Subsequently, the growth we experienced in 2018 was driven by our first acquisition and resulted in purely organic growth throughout 2019. Thanks to our offering, we now have the resources to acquire additional companies, which is a core 2020 focus."

Using third party logistics and facilities, TerraCycle converts collected waste into raw materials that are sold to and used by manufacturers to create new products. Examples of waste streams collected and recycled by TerraCycle include chip bags, coffee capsules, cigarette butts, oral care, beauty care, child car seats, disposable contact lenses and packaging, as well as over 100 additional waste streams in the United States. Through its programs, TerraCycle has demonstrated that consumers patronize businesses which provide recycling solutions for the products they manufacture.
