I recently heard that the paper cartons that beer cans are packaged in can be recycled. How about soda?
It isn’t whether the packaging contains beer or soda that defines recyclability, but with the weight the cardboard is designed to carry. Generally 6-pack carriers can be recycled, but 12-packs can’t. To increase its strength, the paper for the 12-packs has been treated with paraffin which contaminates it.
