JERSEY VILLAGE, Texas - Most people see an old mattress as nothing more than bulky trash.
One local inventor shared with 2 Helps You that he not only sees an opportunity, but a way to positively impact our community.
Vahid Serajian, a Texas A&M graduate and founder of VitriCycle, has spent the last five years developing a way to recycle discarded mattress foam into new products - helping reduce landfill waste while creating sustainable materials that can be used in everything from plastic sheets to wearable fashion.
