Closing The Loop
Paper, cardboard, newspapers and magazines can be turned back into egg cartons. Due to the quality end product being not contaminated, APR Kerbside provides local manufacturers with peace of mind that no glass will end up in their product.
Once sorted, Steel and Aluminium cans and tins are baled and sent to local metal recyclers to be crushed and then through the smelting process, be utilised into new products again.
Each category of plastic is processed differently and has its own specific end market. It is important to be aware that the numbers and symbols found on the bottom of plastic items are not actually recycling symbols. They are plastic identification codes that help to identify and tell us what type of plastic it is.
