LET’S BE BETTER.
EVERY DAY.
Schupan maintains the highest possible performance levels year-round for processing material that moves through our facilities. Our processing sites are geared for peak performance and convert billions of containers to bales, biscuits, or shred each year. We continually rethink, refine, and reengineer our processes to optimize both our productivity and customer satisfaction in providing a cleaner, better end-product.

ENVIRONMENTAL CONSERVATION.
Curbside recycling helps conserve natural resources by reducing the need for raw materials. For instance, recycling paper saves trees and water, while recycling metals reduces the need for mining and refining, which can be environmentally destructive. This conservation effort helps protect ecosystems and biodiversity.
ENERGY SAVINGS & EMISSION REDUCTIONS.
Recycling materials generally require less energy compared to producing new products from raw materials. For example, recycling aluminum saves up to 95% of the energy needed to create new aluminum from bauxite ore. This energy saving also translates into a significant reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, helping to mitigate climate change.
ECONOMIC BENEFITS & JOB CREATION.
Curbside recycling programs can create jobs in the recycling and manufacturing industries. These programs also support local economies by providing materials for recycling facilities and reducing disposal costs for municipalities. Additionally, by diverting waste from landfills, curbside recycling helps extend the lifespan of existing landfill sites, avoiding the high costs associated with developing new waste management facilities.
