Recycle Activities
At Visy, we have built our business around recovering used materials
and recycling them into new products.
In 1979 we began supplying our own packaging paper needs and built our
first paper recycling mill. The Visy group now operates eight paper recycling
machines - six in Australia and two in the USA. Together these machines
produce more than 1.2 million tonnes of 100% recycled packaging paper
annually.

Kerbside Recycling
The kerbside division of Visy Recycling processes recyclable materials
collected from about 2 million households and 50,000 businesses in Australia
every week. This is the stage where recyclables are sorted and contaminants
removed.

Paper Recycling
Over the past twenty years our paper recovery in Australia
has grown from 40,000 to 850,000 tonnes per annum.
