We are doing a project and need to know if these materials are recyclable or not:

cloth sheets (cotton)

plastic wrap

cardboard form

bronze or brass? (copper and tin mixture?)

modeling material - ????? the box does not say what this. I believe it is called "model magic"

Are any of these reclyable? Please give as much info as you can.

  1. I don't know about the 'modeling material'but all the other stuff is .Basically all recyclable materials are either ground up,chopped up,or melted down placed in the closest original formulation and added to the reformulation process to make the recycled product.That's kinda it in a nut shell.

  4. Plastic carrier bags are recyclable, Fleece jumpers and jackets can be made from them, Also plastic bottles. Cotton is able to rot down of its own accord. Cardboard form will rot down also. It can be put into a compost heap.

    Bronze, brass and copper can be re-smelted and made into something new.

    Can't answer re 'model magic'. why  not go to their website and ask them?

    Good luck with the project.

  5. I believe- plastic wraps are not recyclable.Cotton, metals can be recycled
