Insights from the PAC Global "GFL MRF & Compost Facility Tour"
GFL MRF & Compost Facility
I recently attended a fascinating waste management tour organized by
PAC Global. Here are some key takeaways:
Pumpkin Waste in Full Swing:
With pumpkin season wrapping up, the spirit of the pumpkin fest still lingers at the plant, bringing a touch of seasonal charm to the recycling process!
Paper and Cardboard: The Sustainable Favorites:
These materials are recycling stars: they are easy to recycle and highly valued, making them a smart and sustainable packaging choice.
Mono-Materials Matter:
Packaging made from a single material greatly improves sorting efficiency and material recovery, making recycling much more effective.
Battery Disposal Dangers:
Discarded batteries can cause dangerous explosions during sorting. Recycling them properly is critical for safety.
Thank you, PAC Global & GFL Environmental Inc. & Region of Peel for this eye-opening experience and for demonstrating how thoughtful design and disposal can drive real environmental progress.
