METRO Waste Paper Recovery, Inc. focuses on the recovery of recyclable materials before reaching the waste stream. As a result of this pro-active approach, METRO diverts over 1.5 million tons of recyclable materials from landfills across North America every year. The company assesses the materials, identifies efficiencies and collects a multitude of recyclable materials at a facility. Focusing on maximum recovery and efficiency, the ultimate goal of reducing a facility's environmental footprint and overall waste costs is a fundamental component of METRO's Green by Nature philosophy. It invests in the latest state-of-the-art technology & innovation, builds new multi-material facilities and identifies the most efficient ways to recovery materials.
