Turn Packaging Waste Management into Profit Generating Strategy
Economic Benefits of Recycling Packaging Waste
Recycling packaging waste can significantly cut costs associated with waste disposal. For instance, businesses often pay tipping fees to dispose of waste in landfills. By reducing the volume of waste through recycling, these fees can be minimized. Additionally, recycled materials like paper, plastics, and metals can be sold to recycling companies, turning waste into a source of income. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, recycling one ton of aluminum can save up to $1,000 in energy costs1.
