Recleim, Pepsi Bottling Ventures Announce Recycling Agreement
|
Recleim LLC announced that it will serve as the recycling services provider for Pepsi Bottling Ventures (PBV), the largest privately held Pepsi-Cola bottler in North America. PBV will work with Recleim to properly dispose of retired cold drink vending machines, fountain units, glass door merchandisers, and other parts and components. Recleim's exclusively licensed recycling technology enables it to recover 95 percent of PBV equipment by weight. Under the agreement, Recleim will transport retired equipment from PBV's central distribution center in Winston-Salem, N.C., to its flagship recycling facility in Graniteville, S.C. for processing. Recleim will also provide PBV with a certificate of destruction, a traceable document that guarantees all goods received by Recleim are recycled in a way that meets or exceeds federal, state and local requirements. "Companies want to feel confident that when they recycle equipment and parts, it will be done right," said Doug Huffer, president and general manager of Recleim. "We provide that level of assurance which is why companies like Pepsi Bottling Ventures turn to us for their recycling needs."
