Material Recovery Facility (MRF)

A Material Recovery Facility (MRF) is a specialized plant where recyclable materials collected from households and businesses are sorted and prepared for reuse. Incoming waste is received and then separated into different categories such as paper, plastics, metals, and glass using a combination of manual and automated processes. The goal is to maximize the recovery of recyclable materials, reduce waste sent to landfills, and promote environmental sustainability. MRFs serve as a critical link in waste management, ensuring that valuable materials are efficiently recycled and reused in manufacturing processes.
