GreenPak calls for proper and correct use of bring-in sites

-

GreenPak would like to draw the attention of the public that it is not allowed to dispose of dangerous objects or substances in its bring-in sites.

GreenPak delivered this educationa­l message to the public following the latest incident when a truck collecting separated metals from bring-in sites operated by GreenPak caught fire. It seems that some irresponsi­ble person or reckless persons threw metal containers with explosive or highly inflammabl­e liquids in bring-in sites. While investigat­ions are still underway, the indication­s are that the material was some form of solvent liquid.

This incident could have had more serious consequenc­es had the material caught fire when the truck arrived at Sant’Antnin recycling facility.

GreenPak reminds users that bring-in sites bins should only be used for separated waste, namely glass, plastic, metal and paper/cardboard. To avoid such incidents, it is not allowed to dispose of other materials, composite materials or liquids in bring-insites.
