New Video! From Milk Jugs to Playgrounds

Play Mart has recently produced a short (4:26) video that explains our manufacturing process: taking milk jugs (#2 HDPE post-industrial plastic) and using them to create innovative recycled commercial playground equipment.

This video is a great teaching tool, whether it is used in the classroom or the boardroom. Produced from a kid's point of view, students and business professionals alike will be able to appreciate Play Mart's commitment to producing a world-class, environmentally friendly product: a product that diverted nearly one million pounds of plastic from landfills in 2007.

If you think this video would be a helpful tool in your classroom, boardroom or whatever room, we invite you to contact us at (800) 43-PLAYS (437-5297) for your complimentary DVD. Once you have viewed our story, please let us know how we can help you put recovered milk jugs to work at a playground near you!

And we want to hear from you! Tell us what you think about our new video! We'll be showing it to people all over the country this fall at trade shows in Philadelphia, Baltimore, Dallas, Las Vegas and Boston. More importantly, we're glad you had a chance to get this first look at our process online, from wherever you are!
