Recycline began in 1996 when founder Eric Hudson designed an innovative toothbrush out of all-recycled material. Today, Recycline's eco-friendly product line, Preserve, includes a range of personal care items, tableware, and kitchen goods. In 2007, Whole Foods and Recycline launched a line of kitchenware products that included colanders, cutting boards, mixing bowls, and storage containers. Through its various partnerships, Recycline was able to take an untested product and sell it at the nation's largest and most respected natural foods store. Whole Foods in turn used its experience and resources to ensure the product sold well.
