Vinyl Scrim and banner recycling

[Michael Siminitus]

Greetings green-yesers,

Does anyone know a good vendor for recycling large quantities of vinyl scrim? We're looking to divert 1900' of high quality material but it seems our regular vendors have stopped accepting material.

Preferably nor-cal/Bay Area but any CA companies would be helpful. Thanks!

Michael

If it can't be reduced, reused, repaired, rebuilt, refurbished, refinished, resold or recycled or composted then it should be restricted, redesigned or removed from production. -Martin Bourke,  Berkeley Ecology Center

repurposed MATERIALS takes this sort of stuff and resells it:

They focus on industrial reuse - great concept.

While not in CA, they have locations in Denver, Atlanta, Chicago.  It's worth it to sign up for their newsletter - well-done and constantly looking for new outlets for old industrial materials. Vinyl banners & scrim seem to move from there very well.
Good resource for everyone on this list.
