Recycling Center Planned In Kingsport

Plans for the largest material-to-material recycling center in the world have been released by Eastman Chemical Company. The $2 billion plant is scheduled for completion by the end of this year and the plastics that will be shredded and refined into new products will come from Food City customers. The grocery store chain plans to place recycling bins at their Kingsport locations for collection. Starting in 2024 you can even drop off polyester clothing, shampoo bottles, and laundry detergent containers.
