Launched in 2025 and now in its second year, Project reTREE is an artificial tree recycling pilot
in partnership with WEEE Ireland, Thorntons, Panda and Balsam Hill.
Artificial trees are designed to be reusable.
If your tree still works but you no longer need or use it, please consider donating it.
If your Christmas tree is ready to be recycled, please see drop-off instructions below.
For more information, email sustainability@balsambrands.com or visit balsamhill.co.uk/sustainability.
Thank you for recycling!
