The Rumpke Education Center is a 2,000-square foot, highly interactive exhibit within the new Rumpke Recycling & Resource Center, North America’s largest and most technologically advanced recycling facility, located in Columbus, Ohio.
Rumpke has educated school children visiting their recycling facilities for 30 years, but wanted to create an elevated experience that would appeal to visitors of all ages. “We wanted to take it up a level and that’s what this education center does,” said Amanda Pratt, Senior Vice President, Communications, Rumpke.
The Education Center is laid out as a linear tour that follows the recycling process from consumer purchasing to material collection to sorting to baling to eventual reuse as new products.
