The company plans to invest $1m in facility upgrades.
“We are very excited to work with the County,” said Jim Brown, vice president, Sonoco Recycling. “Residents of Coastal North Carolina will now have access to expanded, single-stream, or commingled, recycling, increasing the types of materials they are able to recycle.
“We also plan to build an education centre at the County’s MRF, developing recycling education efforts in and around Onslow County through partnerships with local schools and public education programmes at the facility.”
A recycling leader with locations and expertise worldwide, Sonoco Recycling annually collects more than three million tonnes of old corrugated containers, various grades of paper, metals and plastics. In addition, the company has experts who provide secure, reliable and innovative recycling solutions to residential and commercial customers.
