Those containers will come from a variety of recuperation centers of plastic and program’s like Stewardship Ontario, RTQ, Safety Kleen, Terrapure, Cleanfarms and GFL that are empty and clean of original content.) Those plastic will be transfer throughout the Burlington facility to our Quebec facility using a baler to compact products at a total rate of 8 tonnes per day and with a maximum total storage of 36 tonnes at any one time.
