What material is this made of? You can check by looking on the bottom at the recycling code--there should be some letters with it. Thanks so much!

Other than the recycle code mentioned (5 with "PP" under it) there is a number "0480" with a little "2" under it. Hope you found what you were looking for.

It has a Plastic Recycling Code 5 Polypropylene (PP). Not sure how safe it is for long term use. Try doing some research on this code to see how safe it is. I found this website that kinda explains various recycling codes. (http://www.h2no.org/plastic_recycling_codes.asp). Hope it helps and good luck.

They seem like standard plastic so I would assume they could be recycled but as the other answerers I have kept mine and have even run them through the dishwasher. I've had mine for almost a year and they are still in great shape.

The one I got is not made of plastic on the outside, there was a lining on the inside. ask the buyer you choose if there's are made from plastic.

The short answer is "I don't know". There is no recycle code on the bottom. The plastic is hard and has no odor whatsoever - it seems quite inert.

Doubt it... I haven't yet ordered this product, but intend to. If there is a "recycle" symbol on the jar, the number within will give some indication as to the kind of plastic used. I know that "5" is a particularly nefarious form of plastic... I will update this further get more specific info- unless someone beats me to the punch. Hope this helps... anyone else have something to add?

Like the others, I don't know. As a printer (for 35 years) I would say that IF it was recycled, they would have advertised it as such. Paper companies are big on that nowadays.

It is made of plastic but I am not sure if it's recycled. Also, I am not sure if it is food grade because I am just using it for a houseplant. Sorry I could not be of more assistance.

There is no recycle number on the bottom and was made in China....my guess is no. But it does work well.

Yes if it will not break. Quality not that very good so most probably it cant be recycled.

Recycled plastics; seems quite durable and somewhat resilient. But ours came with a chip on a corner.

I believe it is some sort of recycled plastic. It stood up well to both sun and rain this past summer, and so far has stood up well to snow, though we've not had much of that.

I take it to our recycling center. It's plastic coated box. I recycle all my boxes & plastic bottles along with many other things.

You would have to check in your area to find where to recycle it. There should be somewhere you can bring it.

It is a type of plastic. You would have to contact Nordic Ware to find out the composition. I've used mine for may years and don't feel there's a problem.

I have no idea. You need to contact the manufacturer in order to find out what kind of plastic was used.

I would assume because it is just made out of recycled paper; however, it would be best to ask your local pet shop. Even a phone call to them could answer your question.
