IPG Facility Achieves Zero Waste Certification
USA-headquartered IPG, a global provider of packaging and protective solutions, reported that its manufacturing facility in Chicago has been awarded GOLD certification under the TRUE (Total Resource Use and Efficiency) rating system.
This plant “has demonstrated its dedication to best practices in recycling, reusing, and reducing waste, achieving an impressive 91.6 percent diversion rate by recycling materials such as plastics and cardboard. The team also implemented composting, transitioned to paperless office functions, and developed systems that emphasize reuse.” As underlined, the TRUE certification, administered by Green Business Certification Inc. (GBCI), helps facilities measure, improve, and recognize zero waste performance by encouraging the adoption of sustainable practices that contribute to positive environmental, health, and economic outcomes.
