Carton Recycling Primer


Over the tenure of its existence, the Carton Council of Canada has assembled a robust knowledge base. In order to share that knowledge with key stakeholders, enhancing their carton recycling efforts, the CCC released a Carton Recycling Primer, which brings together information gathered from commissioned technical studies and visits to sorting facilities across the country.

In the Primer, MRF operators and municipalities can find information, data and best practices around carton recycling collection, sorting and marketing, including baseline data that can be used to conduct a business case to sort cartons. Please note that the Primer is not intended to replace qualified engineering and/or legal advice. We hope you will find it useful and we welcome your feedback.
