Woolworths Chief Marketing Officer, Andrew Hicks says:

“Woolworths Bricks is a fun and interactive way of learning at home that can spark conversations within families about sustainability; whether that’s how materials like plastic or refrigerators can be given a second life, or how solar panels and electric car chargers are making a positive impact on the environment at their local Woolies.”

The newest collectable toy has been certified by Good Environmental Choice Australia. This means they’ve been independently assessed to meet robust environmental, human health and social impact criteria to prove they’re good for customers and the planet.

Woolworths partnership with TerraCycle has also been renewed, which will allow customers to drop pre-loved Woolies Bricks to any Woolworths store to be recycled. The partnership helps create a circular economy by aiding the creation of new items from the Woolworths Bricks, including park benches and garden beds. Amazing, right?
