Materials Recovery Facility (MRF)

A Materials Recovery Facility (MRF) is a specialized plant where recyclable waste materials, such as paper, plastics, metals, and glass, are sorted and prepared for reuse. Incoming waste is delivered and carefully separated using conveyors, screens, and sorting equipment, ensuring contaminated or non-recyclable items are removed. The goal is to maximize the amount of recyclable material recovered efficiently and safely, reducing landfill waste and conserving resources. MRFs play a crucial role in waste management by transforming mixed waste into clean, sorted recyclables that can be processed into new products.
