WASTE MANAGEMENT
Industries, Businesses and Institutions (ICI)
Industries, businesses and institutions (ICI) are also covered by the Quebec Residual Materials Management Policy. The policy requires this sector to recuperate, by 2008, 95% of metals and glass, 70% of plastics, 70% of fibres (including wood), 60% of compostable materials and 85% of tires.
Solutions
Here are a few solutions to increase your establishment’s recuperation performance.
- Take part in your municipality’s recycling pick up or sign a contract with a private contractor;
- Consult the Quebec directory of recuperators, recyclers and reusers;
- Organize zero waste meetings and events;
- Get an ICI on Recycle certification;
- Does your company or institution perform well in recycling? Let everyone know and be recognized by Recyc-Québec;
- Promote the ecological lunch box.
