Grundon Waste
Management will be unveiling details of its newly-launched Paper Cup Recycling
service at this year’s Facilities Show.
With the cost
of the service tailored around the frequency of customer collections and the number
of cups to be recycled, rather than membership fees; Grundon also guarantees
that all its collections are certified CarbonNeutral®.
Thanks to a new
partnership with CupCyclingTM by James Cropper, one of the UK’s
leading cup recycling facilities, customers will be able to buy back paper made
from cups which have already been recycled.
Stephen Hill,
Grundon’s Head of Sales, explains: “Finding
the right solution for recycling paper cups has been high on our agenda and
we’re confident this new service, which guarantees 100% recycling, provides the
most flexible and sustainable offering available today.
“This provides
both environmental and financial benefits and we believe it will appeal to a
wide range of businesses and organisations who use disposable paper cups.”
The new service
is available as a standalone offering - meaning organisations do not have to be
existing Grundon customers - or as part of an existing total waste management
package.
Among the
customers that have already signed up is West One Shopping Centre, located in the
heart of London’s West End. Centre manager, Cyrus Annan, said: “We are
passionate about sustainability and take recycling very seriously. We have a
significant number of outlets who serve coffee and other drinks in disposable
paper cups so this move makes complete commercial sense for us and our tenants.
"Most
importantly though, this new service means we divert the thousands of cups that
would have ended up in general waste, into recycling; so it really does tick
all the boxes.”
The new service
includes:
- Expert
advice and support
- Installation
of specially-designed colour-coded paper cup recycling bins with a central
reservoir for excess liquid and a side pod for lids-
- External
cup recycling containers where cups can be stored ready for collection
- Signage,
posters and marketing materials to encourage responsible disposal
-Training
for employees and associates, including cleaning and facilities management companies
To deliver the
service, Grundon has partnered with CupCyclingTM by James Cropper,
the world’s first recycling process dedicated to
upcycling take-away cups. Clean paper cups are collected by Grundon and taken for
processing and baling at its own Materials Recovery Facilities (MRFs), before being
sent to James Cropper’s own paper mill.
There,
the paper - which makes up around 90% of the cup material - is separated and
converted back into Forest Stewardship Council (FCS) certified paper fibre. The
remainder, plastic polymers from the polyethylene film, is sent for
reprocessing.
Customers
can then buy back paper products made from waste paper cups.
