An excellent example of this can be found in our Transition™ TRH Series Recycling Stations. The combination of long lasting high density polyethylene (HDPE) made from 98% recycled content, which is completely recyclable and a true cradle-to-cradle choice, with our most forward thinking and responsible recycling container designs make them the choice of environmental stewards at all levels.
At CleanRiver™, we think beyond the typical 3R’s. We think in terms of the 6R’s: Rethink, Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Re-manufacture, and Respect.
Our commitment to supporting our customer's sustainability efforts remains as strong as ever and is supported by a proven track record as a leader in innovative, responsible recycling containers, recycling stations, waste bins and recyling program services. We are proud to have supported the recycling initiatives of a diverse range of companies and organizations including more than 300 college and university campuses across North America, 3,000 federal, state, provincial and municipal buildings, as well as 100 plus military installations around the world, including the Pentagon.
CleanRiver™ manufactures recycling containers, recycling and waste bins, and recycling stations made from raw materials with the highest recycled content available. In addition, we support your recycling and sustainability efforts with a variety of recycling programs to implement and maintain efficient and productive paper recycling, plastic recycling, metal recylcing, and the recycling of compostable materials, as well as e-waste, light bulbs, confidential materials, and more. These services include coordinating and tracking waste audits, interpreting waste stream regulations and guidelines, and ROI analysis.
Rethink: Constantly strive to improve the effectiveness of recycling programs for all parties involved. Strive for Win/Win’s every day.
Reduce: Do more by using less. Less material in our recyling containers and waste bins, better utilization of our cut-offs and scrap, less paper to communicate with our clients and internal processes.
Reuse: Create responsible recycling containers and recycling stations that are designed to be repurposed. Garbage cans and waste receptacles that evolve into multi-stream recycling centers are entry level products that can later be incorporated into sophisticated waste management systems.
Recycle: Reclaim and capture everything that can be recycled, repurposed or composted and provide clients with an end of life means of disposing of our recycling containers in order to ensure that all components can be recycled to create new products.
Re-manufacture: Create closed loop processes where ever possible ensuring that raw and finished goods materials can be reused to re-manufacture products. This will always ensure the highest level of return for recycled content.
Respect: Think “What’s best?” and “What’s right?”, rather than what will make a quick sale or a quick profit. Responsible recycling is respectful of our planet.
