Materials Identification and Segregation

Where possible, plastic components are marked with ASTM recycling codes. Use these codes to identify material type for recycling. Non-marked components should be treated as mixed plastic. Ferrous metals can be identified using a small magnet for recycling. Non-ferrous metals should be separated and recycled separately.
