Nylons is made of petroleum products, it doesn’t break down easily. Nylon is not an easy or cheap material to recycle. Just about anyone has nylon in their home, it is in the backpacks of our kids, the pantyhose women wear to work and the cheap, reusable shopping bags everyone carries out. Your ability to recycle nylons depends on the form it takes; for example. pantyhose are easier to recycle than nylon backpacks. If you cannot recycle an item made of nylon, you may not be able to reuse it..
Nylons are plastic products that we can’t do without; we use them for various things. They make great outfits too. Little wonder the fashion industry is now all about nylon outfits.
A lot of products are also being manufactured with nylon in them. Some of these products will amaze you. For example, did you know that even your toothbrush bristles have nylon in them? Other items that maximize the use of nylons are underwear, camping gear, carpets, and so on. Virtually every recycling center takes nylons; they are recycled with other plastic products. However, there may be no provision for recycling nylons near you. If there isn’t, then you can use a recycling locator to find the closest place you can recycle your nylons.
