Follow the journey of a kerbside bin to our Material Recovery Facility (MRF) in Victoria.
When you watch this video about one of many MRFs around Australia designed to sort commingled recycling into streams of paper, cardboard, hard plastic, aluminium and glass you will:
- learn how optical sorting machines recognise and separate materials according to their size
- find out why items like soft plastic and hazardous waste don’t belong in recycling streams
- discover how each waste stream can be reused and recycled into new products.
