Pepsi Bottling has been committed to environment protection, ensuring that machines are recycled according to highest standards, said, Roy Taylor, marketing equipment manager, Pepsi Bottling.
Recleim has the technology and process in place to maximize the amount of materials recovered from retired items. The objective of this kind of recycling is to work with a company that shares similar passion for responsible stewardship of the environment, added Taylor.
According to the agreement, Recleim will transport retired equipment from PBV’s central distribution center to its flagship recycling facility for processing.
It will also provide PBV with a destruction certificate and a guarantee document that all goods received by Recleim are recycled in a way that meets or exceeds federal, state and local requirements.
Companies want to feel confident that when they recycle equipment and parts, it will be done right. Since not every recycler has the same capabilities, it’s crucial to work with one that can reduce the release of harmful substances into the environment, added, Doug Huffer, president, general manager, Recleim.
Recleim’s arduous recycling process ensures that emissions of ozone-diminishing substances are minimized.
The recycling center processes more than 60 million pounds of equipment annually – including household appliances, HVAC units and other devices.
