Don't throw away that old filter! RECYCLE.

Brita and Preserve teamed up to create a take-back recycling program for Brita pitcher filter cartridges. You can drop off filters at number of participating locations, or mail them in. Unfortunately, since the faucet mount filters are made from a different type of plastic from the pitcher filters, they are not part of the program at this time. However, Brita and Preserve are continuing to explore options to recycle faucet mount filters and hope to have a solution in the near future.

Preserve is a U.S. company manufacturing household products from recycled plastic, will recycle 100% of the plastic casing. And the filter material will be regenerated or converted to energy.
