ConAgra Foodservice announced last week a new type of packaging for its Wesson Smart Choice Oil that is both environmentally friendly and offers some safety improvements over its existing 35-pound Jug-in-Box packaging for its oils. The new packaging is aptly named Bag-in-Box. It includes four built-in handles as well as a built-in spout, which is expected to make pouring easier and safer.
Bag-in-Box packaging offers two major environmental benefits using 66% less plastic than current traditional packaging and it takes up 36% less space in dumpsters when broken down.

"36% less space in dumpsters when broken down." suggests that these are intended to be thrown away instead of recycled. Does this mean the packages aren't recyclable?
