TIMBERLAND’S RECYCLABLE CHECKLIST

Timberland strive to reduce our environmental impact and to help protect, create, and restore nature for generations to come. Now we’re calling on you to do your part – and we’ve made it easy. 

Recycling helps reduce the pollution caused by waste and lessens the need for raw materials so that rainforests can be preserved. We know that recycling is important because it conserves natural resources such as timber, water and minerals.

Check out our digital checklist below, which you can use to get you started on a greener path.
