We care so much about paper and packaging; when youre done with it we want it back
Cascades Recovery is an integral part of Cascades Inc. Together, we are responsible manufacturers of paper and packaging, we produce it, and after it has been used we want it back.
Unlike waste companies whose primary business is waste to landfill our busi-ness is to divert material from landfill and find ways to use the discarded materials over and over again, working towards zero waste.
We assist our customers in achieving their sustainability goals while deliver-ing cost effective recovery methods. Through our Recovery PLUSTM Pro-gram, a customized material recovery plan is developed for each customer.
The PLUS takes our efforts beyond simple recovery and incorporates program efficiencies into each business processes, ensuring that every effort is made to find beneficial uses for all discarded materials.
Programs:Industry Compliant / Waste Audits / AssessmentsTenant and Staff Awareness / Education Environmental Certificates / Diversion ReportsMarketing / Communications
Services:Compactor / Baler Installation Paper Recovery / Recycling / Secure Document DestructionOrganic Food Waste / Mixed Plastics / E-wasteWood Pallets / Metal Recycling / Hazardous WasteGeneral Refuse and Equipment Supply

Replacement Cost Appraisal ServiceAs a diligent property manager, when trusting a company to calculate the Replacement Cost of your building for insurance purposes, accuracy should be the most important factor to you. A valuation by Canadas largest real estate consulting company, backed by data from live, current construction projects across Canada, is the best way to ensure that you are neither paying too much for your insurance premiums, nor at risk of being underinsured in the event of a loss.
