When we receive your Zero Waste Bag, we check it in and sort out anything that isn't accepted waste.
Materials are separated based on processing requirements then size-reduced through shredding.
After processing, the raw materials are used to make new products, including items that will benefit your local community.

Each Zero Waste Bag is opened upon receipt and visually inspected for any non-compliant materials, then consolidated for processing in bulk.
The consolidated materials are then manually sorted into categories based on predominant material makeup and secondary stage mechanical processing requirements. Items containing electrical components are manually disassembled to separate materials by composition.
All materials are size-reduced through shredding. Metals are then removed through magnetized and electrostatic sortation. Sorted metals are then smelted and formed for use in secondary metals manufacturing. Wood materials are pulverized and used to make wood fuel pellets. Rigid plastics and papers are then sorted by density profile and composition through multi-stage air, optical, and water-based mechanical sortation systems.
Clean, sorted plastics are mixed with other plastics to make recycled plastic blends that are then used by various manufacturers to make new products. Sorted papers are pulped and used for secondary corrugated and paper manufacturing applications.
