Natural wood wine corks collection and recycling program by Hyatt

Hyatt Regency Lake Tahoe Resort, Spa and Casino have come up with a way to get rid of all those thousands of natural used wine corks. In partnership with ReCORK, the firm has launched an initiative recently, by which, the corks will be collected throughout the resort, and passed on to ReCORK to help with their recycling program. So what use do these corks come of? They are recycled and blended into unique formulations to produce foot wear products like flip sandals and packaging, by SOLE.

ReCORK aims at finding the best ways to recycle and reuse corks, and from June onwards, will place collection boxes at Lone Eagle Grille and other resort venues. The SOLE flips will be available for purchase at Hyatt Regency Lake Tahoe, which will play the role of a retailer. The Hyatt Regency Lake Tahoe Resort, Spa and Casino’s is sure working hard for a greener and cleaner image.
