EN11(7) Fate of Packaging Material on Goods Received

Print This Page

On the receiving end, BC Hydro attempts to reduce, reuse and recycle all packaging material wherever possible. Reusable cardboard boxes are segregated and reused as required. Damaged, wet and marked packaging is recycled in the Cardboard Recycling Program. Blister sheets, silica gel, popcorn and styrofoam are reused as required in shipping. With markets now becoming available for shrink wrap, old uniforms and styrofoam these items will also become part of the existing Comprehensive Resource Recovery Program next year.
