Sustana Fiber recently installed a brand new high-capacity shredding machine at its Breakeyville mill in Quebec, which will improve the recycling process for aseptic and gable top containers, also known as multilayer cartons, such as milk and juice cartons.
The new shredder supports Sustana Fiber’s commitment to realize a zero-waste future and invest in the circular economy. A circular economy is built on the principle of extending the life cycle of materials and resources that have already served a purpose into new uses – ultimately mitigating the impact on the environment and climate change.
The multilayer carton operation is a first in Quebec, bringing sustainable fiber full circle with this innovative operation. This shredder was a major investment in circular economy to recycle more carton containers and was financially supported by Recyc-Quebec, demonstrating the importance and urgency of this initiative.
