AES Helps UN1F1ED Control Waste by Greg Kishbaugh U N1F1ED2 Global Packaging Group (UGPG2) was looking for a better way to control its waste.The packaging provider,with cor- porate headquarters in Sutton, Massachusetts, wanted a system that would allow the company to individually control its operation based on what piece of equipment it was running.With its eye toward the future, the company also required that the system allowed for expan- sion and could support the company’s molded fiber machines with the scrap corrugated conversion operation.
ISRI, SWANA To Host MRF Summit The Institute of Scrap Recycling Indus- tries (ISRI), Washington, and the Solid Waste Association of North America (SWA- NA), Silver Spring, Maryland, will part- ner for their MRF Summit, taking place November 18-19. Peter Wright, assistant administrator at the U.S. Environmental ProtectionAgency,will be speaking during the MRF Summit, providing an update on the administration’s work on recycling in the context of America Recycles Week as well as the work the agency is undertak- ing year-round, such as the development of a national recycling strategy. In addition, several congressional staff members will speak to discuss the various bills that have been introduced in Congress to address re- cycling challenges and opportunities. Participants will be given tools needed to expand public education and commu- nications.Technology providers and MRF operators also will share how new tech- nologies, including robotics and artificial intelligence (AI), are driving improve- ments. Participants will learn what tools and equipment are available now to gen- erate high-quality material at a lower cost at facilities, the organizers say. Adina Renee Adler, ISRI’s vice president of advocacy, will deliver a review of the

New SWANA Report Focuses On Energy Recovery Options The Solid Waste Association of North America’s (SWA- NA’s)Applied Research Foundation (ARF) recently conduct- ed research on energy recovery options for non-marketable plastic recyclables, as well as plastics that are not typically targeted for recycling.The resulting report,“Energy Recov- ery Options for Non-Recycled Plastic Discards,” reviews three system options that are available to solid waste man- agers for the recovery of energy from non-recycled waste plastics, including plastics-to-fuels (PTF) systems, non-waste fuel (NWF) systems and waste-to-energy (WTE) systems. Solid Waste Reference According to SWANA, it is the organization’s intention that this report will serve as a reference for solid waste manag- ers interested in pursuing energy recovery options for the non-marketable plastic discards in their communities. Recycling Stream The PTF option targets non-recycled plastics in discard- ed containers and packaging.This portion of the recycling stream represents 29 percent of the plastics in MSW and 4 percent of municipal solid waste (MSW) generated. The WTE and NWF options target plastics in durable and non-durable goods discarded as MSW.These plastics consti- tute 47 percent of the plastics in MSW and represent about 6 percent of MSW generated.

Troy University Receives $3.5 Million NIST Grant
Troy University, Troy, Alabama, has received a $3.5 mil- lion federal grant that will fund its continued research and development of methods to recycle personal protective equipment (PPE). The National Institute of Standards and Technology has awarded TROY’s Center for Materials and Manufacturing Sciences a $3.5 million grant aimed at com- bating the growing problem of medical waste. The three-year grant is the third NIST has awarded to the center, continuing the growth of the CMMS. “The first two NIST grants were to set up the lab, and this one is to fund particular research projects,” said Dr. Govind Menon,Director of TROY’s School of Science andTechnolo- gy.“We are entering into the academic research phase of the center.This $3.5 million goes directly to research projects, and it will include something TROY has never done before — we’re going to have post-doctoral positions, something very typical of research institutions.” In 2019 alone, the United States generated more than 100 million tons of medical waste. RoadRunner Partners With Avery Dennison, Valo Ventures RoadRunner Recycling, based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, has closed its funding round with nearly $40 million in in- vestments. The $10 million from Avery Dennison and Valo Ventures comes after the initial round of $28.6 million led by e.ventures and Greycroft in March 2020. The funds from both investments will be used to support the continued expansion of RoadRunner, and its end-to-end waste and recycling management services, to at least 10 new markets across the United States. It will also be applied to further the development of its AI/machine-learning tech- nology and grow internally to expand further. In addition to Avery Dennison’s $5 million investment, RoadRunner has partnered with the company to develop a customized pilot program, leveraging its technological ca- pabilities and operational capacity, to support Avery Denni- son’s aggressive zero-waste goals. To date, RoadRunner has: · raised $59.1 million; · served more than 6,000 customers; · helped businesses divert 130,000 tons of waste; · increased recycling rates by 10 times their average; and · saved businesses more than $20 million on waste and recycling costs.
When it comes to premium baling technology, after the bale build phase nothing matters more than a properly tied bale. Our approach to automated bale tying is based on over 60 years of continuous improvement. The Balemaster auto-tie technology is a combination of proven electro/mechanical concepts, operator-tested automation and built-to-last construction and design engineering principles. So, until we invent wireless baling, there’s nothing easier, nothing more reliable and nothing faster than Balemaster’s Auto-Tier.

Cascades Launches 100% Recyclable Cardboard Tray Cascades, Kingsey Falls, Quebec, has released a 100 per- cent recycled and recyclable thermoform tray. It was developed entirely using a circular economy ap- proach and eco-design principles.The tray is composed of 100 percent recycled fibers, mostly sourced from postcon- sumer sources certified “Recycled” under the Forest Stew- ardship Council (FSC) standard. In addition, it is designed with a patented water-based coating that protects it from moisture without compro- mising the recyclability of the cardboard, according to Cas- cades. Unlike traditional containers coated with a thin layer of plastic or other nonrecyclable coatings, this food tray is easily recyclable and can be placed in the recycling bin. Its SurfSHIELD water-based coating also helps preserve the in- tegrity and freshness of food, reducing food waste. Waste, Recycling Industry Placed On Covid Priority List The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine’s (NAS) committee included the waste and recy- cling industry in its list of recommended industries to re- ceive the COVID-19 vaccine in Phase 2 along with other industries identified as critical workers.NWRA was the only trade association representing the waste and recycling in- dustry to submit comments.

Geomega Secures $3M Loan From Quebec Government Geomega Resources Inc.,Montreal, has secured additional debt financing of nearly $1.33 million to use toward build- ing a rare earth magnet recycling demonstration plant in St. Bruno, Quebec. Project financing will be provided by Inves- tissement Quebec, which will act as an agent on behalf of the Quebec government to secure funding for the project. Geomega Resources reports that this financing is in addi- tion to the first tranche amount of $1.72 million that was announced February 7. The debt financing now amounts to nearly $3.05 million and will have the same favorable terms as the first tranche, including that the debt is non-in- terest-bearing. The increased amount of debt financing amount is based on an updated project evaluated at $4.8 million, including capital costs and working capital, which was previously es- timated at $3.2 million. Geomega said the increased cost results from internal evaluations by the company based on the completed engineering work and adjusts for delays, as- sociated restrictions imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic and engineering work as well as higher costs of engineering and construction. Geomega said the funds will be used toward the purchase of equipment as well as engineering and construction of the demonstration plant.

AES, UN1F1ED (Cont’d from Page 1) The scrap and dust removal and baling system AES in- stalled at UN1F1ED2 provides the converter with a means to tie all of its production equipment together in regard to controlling the waste it generates. The AES system col- lects scraps from six points of generation, including diecut- ters, folder/gluers and other production equipment; a new shredder is also integrated into the scrap system. The AES System is said to offer heavy duty performance in a compact footprint along with lower operating costs; through its use UN1F1ED was actually able to receive a re- bate from its electrical utility. The scrap material travels through pneumatic conveyance ducting by means of material handling fans to a 60,000 CFM AirShark separator before being deposited into an automat- ic baler.The system includes a dust collector, as well. AES provided a turnkey equipment and installation pack- age with professional project management.The scope ofAES’ work included a full electrical control package with touch screen interface, rigging and installation, integration of all equipment, piping and components, structural steel fabrica- tion and erection, and start-up, commissioning and training. When It Began The origins of UN1F1ED2 date back to 1988 whenArt Ma- hassel foundedAtlas Box & Crating Co. in Sutton,Massachu- setts, dedicating the new company to producing custom crates. The company expanded into foam and corrugated products and it grew from its headquarters in Massachu- setts to subsidiary plants in North Carolina and New Jersey, and continuing to expand overseas with facilities in Ireland, Poland, Czech Republic and China. UN1F1ED2, in its current iteration, was created in April 2018 when Rand-Whitney Packaging, a subsidiary of Rand-Whitney Container and Kraft Group company formed a joint venture withAGlobal Solutions, the new name for At- las Box.The newly launched venture soon began operating under the brand UN1F1ED2 Global Packaging Group. At the time of the launch, UPGP Rand-Whitney and Kraft issued a statement saying that, “As the regional leaders in highly engineered protective packaging, this strategic joint venture will allow us to better support our customers with broader capabilities while expanding our reach and respon- siveness globally.” The Kraft Group, headquartered in Foxborough, Massa- chusetts, is the holding company for the Kraft family’s vari- ous businesses,which includes paper and packaging manu- facturing and the distribution of forest products. “Today, UGPG2 is a fully integrated packaging company,” said Tavares,“supporting customers around the world with full capabilities of all protective packaging and straight cor- rugated services along with molded fiber packaging, ware- house and transportation logistics around the world.” From its launch with just one employee, UGPG2 today employs more than 800 around people around the world. Its corporate headquarters in Sutton is 500,000 square feet, and the company is expecting to expand in the next few years to a larger facility.The company’s European headquar-

Alvance Purchases Former Aleris Plant In Duffel, Belgium Novelis Inc., headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, has sold the former Aleris plant in Duffel, Belgium, to Alvance, the aluminum business owned by London, England-based GFG Alliance. Previously, the European Commission and Chinese State Administration for Market Regulation determined that Novelis’ acquisition of Aleris, which closed earlier this year, could proceed on the condition that Novelis divest the Duf- fel plant to a third party that met certain buyer suitability requirements. Both regulators have approved Alvance as a suitable buyer and have permitted the sale to be completed. In November 2019, Paris, France-based Alvance agreed to acquire the Duffel facility for 310 million euros, or roughly $363 million.At closing September 30, Novelis received 210 million euros in cash, or roughly $246 million. The parties have agreed to a postclosing arbitration process regarding the payment of the remaining 100 million euros (roughly $117 million). The Aleris acquisition provides a strong proforma financial profile for Novelis with many strategic benefits and continues to be value accretive,with the long-term outlook in line with the original acquisition case, according to the company. The plant, to be renamed Alvance Aluminium Duffel, em- ploys approximately 1,000 people and annually produces 200,000 tons of aluminum rolled products. Machinex Provides Upgrades To Republic Services MRF Machinex, Quebec, has provided an upgrade to Republic Services’ single-stream material recover facility (MRF) in Greensboro, North Carolina, to increase productivity and recovery rates while reducing cleaning times. Republic chose to modernize its 20-year-old facility after its contract with the city of Greensboro was renewed in order to efficiently handle the incoming recyclables. Machinex designed a single-stream system to process 30 tons per hour of residential and commercial material with- in the current building while reusing some of the existing structural work and baler feed conveyors. Modernizing The system includes a new drum feeder and infeed sys- tem, OCC screen, fines screen, three ballistic separators, a glass cleanup system, an optical sorter for PET and HDPE, as well as a new magnet and eddy current separator. The main processing system is new and includes Ma- chinex’ MACH Ballistic separators as the primary and sec- ondary screening devices after the OCC and fines screens. No rubber discs are utilized in the system.According to Ma- chinex, the system will minimize aluminum loss since the ballistic separators do not use rubber discs that can wear over time, thus increasing the initial screen opening. Its el- liptical movement will also not wrap film or other stringy material, resulting in less maintenance, downtime and oper- ational costs, Machinex said.

ters, located in Cork, Ireland, resides in a 100,000 square- foot facility.New facilities in the Czech Republic and Poland are also nearing completion. UGPG2 reports that it serves every industry, including ecommerce, automotive, military, medical, aerospace, food and beverage, electronics, industrial products and more, and it can assist with a wide range of packaging needs covering engineering, design, testing, fulfillment and real-time infor- mation processing Earlier this year, the company continued its expansion with the acquisition of LJM Packaging Co, Inc. based out of North Kingstown, Rhode Island, LJM manufactures, ware- houses and distributes protective packaging. Like all companies in the packaging space, which have been deemed essential businesses, UGPG2 has had to face dramatic changes in the face of the COVID-19 pandemic. UGPG2 has stated that because of its focus on technology, machine and plant redundancy, and a vertically integrated supply chain, it is particularly well suited to operate effi- ciently through times of turmoil. Access To Resources The company’s vertically integrated supply chain ensures that the company’s manufacturing locations have steady access to required supplies and resources, while each lev- el of the supply chain offers multiple locations, enabling a customer’s packaging to be produced without interruption. Because UPGP2 owns its own fleet of trucks, a customer’s order never leaves UPGP2’s control from the time it is or- dered to when it is ultimately delivered. UGPG2 has also been able to utilize technology to smooth- ly transition a portion of its office personnel to a work from home environment.The company’s sales staff has received training associated with providing web demos through on- line video conferencing software. UGPG2 is fully equipped to produce foam, wood, molded fiber, Air-Paq and corrugated packaging.The company’s ex- pansive engineering team can design packaging products, which can in turn be tested in the company’s in-house ISTA and ISO17025 certified labs. The lab’s capabilities include environmental (temperature, humidity and pressure); vibra- tion (transportation simulation); and shock testing. UGPG2 is a member of Amazon’s Packaging Support and Supplier Network (APASS) and has been approved to pro- vide testing and design services to meet Amazon’s Frustra- tion-Free Packaging Requirement. In terms of corrugated packaging, the company offers RSC/shipping containers and inserts; HSC/folders and par- titions; custom die cuts; specialty gluing: auto lock bottom; bulk containers; and POP and retail-ready displays.The com- pany offers a number of print options, including flexograph- ic (up to 4-color), lithographic (high-end multi-color print), and digital (up to six colors plus white). It offers a number of specialty coatings, as well. Several of the company’s plants are fully integrated with corrugators and fully converting, while others are straight converting plants that include fully automated high-speed corrugated equipment.
