Gumdrop Ltd are proud to announce the release of the Gumdrop On-the-go getting you out of a sticky situation no matter where you are.
Are you sick of seeing chewing gum covering the street yet often stuck in that sticky situation where there is nowhere to dispose of your now tasteless gum? Well now there are no excuses, the Gumdrop On-the-go tackles the problem of irresponsible gum waste head-on by bringing recycling to the public’s fingertips. Now there is always somewhere for you to deposit your gum, it can never end up on someone else’s bum.

The Gumdrop On-the-go is a mini portable chewing gum bin that not only collects waste gum but is also made with recycled chewing gum. The Gumdrop comes with its own key ring, making it easily attachable to your daily essentials, so no matter where you are in the world you always have somewhere to drop your gum. Once full you can either send your Gumdrop back to Gumdrop Ltd directly via post, or simply drop it off at one of the Gumdrop Drop-off Boxes.  The Drop-off Boxes are a new initiative that are currently being trialed in some towns where the boxes have been placed with local retailers, schools, colleges and Universities. The rest of the process you can simply leave to Gumdrop Ltd, they will recycle the Gumdrops along with its contents of waste gum in order to produce a new material, Gum-tec. Gum-tec can be used to make new Gumdrops or alternatively can be used to manufacture other products like wellington boots and mobile phone covers.  This new closed loop recycling process could become a long term solution for chewing gum litter, the future’s green with a drop of pink.

The process is simple the effects are outstanding, will you give gum a second life?
