RELX Launches "RELX RECYCLE PROGRAM" in Japan: 10 Old for 1 New

RELX launches "RELX RECYCLE PROGRAM" in Japan, offering consumers new products in exchange for recycling used RELX products.

According to a press release from PR Times Japan, RELX is set to launch the "RELX RECYCLE PROGRAM" in Japan.

The article refers to the RELX RECYCLE PROGRAM as the first full industry chain recycling initiative involving manufacturers, brands, distribution companies, waste management firms, retailers, and consumers. Its goal is to protect the environment and have a positive impact on individual lifestyles.

According to the information released, the RELX RECYCLE PROGRAM will collect used RELX products from consumers. In addition, if consumers recycle 10 old products together, they can receive a new product called "RELX MagicGo." It is reported that RELX MagicGo is a nicotine-free disposable e-cigarette product.

RELX RECYCLE PROGRAM, which has permanent recycling points in places like "RELX VAPE & NEWS STAND" in Tokyo's Shibuya Ward, is also planning to organize recycling events in major cities in Japan. The first round of these events will be held from December 28th to 30th at Haruyoshi Bridge Square in Nakasu, Fukuoka City.
