Did you know that only 14% of plastic gets recycled annually? The other 86% - about 67 million tons - ends up in landfills, rivers, and oceans, hurting our wildlife, and contributing to climate change. If current practices continue, by 2050 there will be more plastic than fish in the world’s oceans*.

Our AI-enabled Cubes only accept clean containers and sort them at the point of deposit, so they can be recycled into fresh new containers.*
*This moves us one step closer to a circular plastics economy, and a zero-waste future.
Olyns gives you back the deposit you paid when you bought your drink*. Our Cubes are located in places you already visit, like grocery stores, so you don't have to go out of your way to recycle.
* Eligibility of containers varies by state. In California, all CA-CRV containers are eligible for cash refunds through Olyns.
The Olyns app shows how your recycling helps the planet: See the # of containers you deposit, the C02 you save, and amount of waste you diverted from landfills, oceans & incineration.
