International Recycling Group (IRG) finalized the purchase of 25.48 acres of the former Hammermill Paper site from SB3, LLC. The company announced that the property, located in Erie, Pennsylvania, is now officially the home of what will become the country’s largest plastics recycling plant.
The country’s first SuperPRF™ will revolutionize the recycling of plastics by accepting all forms of post-use plastics, including cups, lids, tubs, single use plastics, drink containers, and milk cartons from residential and commercial sources. Right now, almost two-thirds of the plastic Erie households generated are not accepted for recycling. IRG, with its sister company, newBin, promise to ensure not a pound of plastic goes into landfill or the environment.
