Plastic packaging is used widely in the food industry. It aids in the safe and speedy delivery to the consumer, and preserves our food so that there is less food wastage.

Genesis Poly Recycling Inc. can recycle the various plastics that are commonly used in the food industry. And, yes, we will happily recycle those yogurt containers! But only if it is thoroughly rinsed out first, please.

We work with grocery stores, food processers and producers, factories, restaurants, bottlers, and distributers to create infrastructure and best practices for recycling these materials.
