9.1 billion tons of plastic has been produced since plastic was first introduced in the 1950s. Virtually every piece of plastic still exists in some shape or form today because 91% of plastic isn’t recycled and most plastics don’t degrade.

With the wave of legalization of cannabis in recent years, along has come packaging regulations and of course, more plastic waste. For an industry of green, cannabis is anything but. We’re teaming up with our friends at Cannacraft to tackle weed waste with Resynergi, an evolutionary energy recovery system.

How are CannaCraft & Airfield Combating Plastic Waste?

Airfield is the first dispensary partner for this program! The perfect fit for stewardship in sustainability. We’ve installed a receptacle in-store at Airfield to collect plastic packaging and transport to Resynergi’s Santa Rosa facility to be turned into fuel products.

How Does the Take Back Program Work?

Just bring back your used plastic cannabis packaging on your next visit and drop into the receptacle. Not a Cannacraft product? We’ll take all of it – from your doob tubes to plastic jar lids from all of your go-to brands.

How Does the Resynergi Technology Work?

Resynergi uses energy-efficient, low-emission microwaves to convert traditionally non-recyclable plastics into fuel products. This clean fuel, extracted from waste instead of the Earth, can act as an alternative to refined oil.

Resynergi is better for our environment because this technology:

• Displaces use of conventional fossil fuels
• Produces 60% fewer emissions for diesel compared to fossil fuel extraction and refining
• Reduces pollution in the ground and ocean
