Recycling process

 

A fully integrated recycling ecosystem 

 

Sonae Arauco played a pioneering role in creating a wood waste recycling system in the Iberian Peninsula to promote the collection and reintegration of recycled materials into the production process, from pallets to packaging, furniture, doors, construction, municipal waste, and more. The system also takes advantage of and creates value for industry by-products, such as slabs, sawdust or wood chips

This process includes the reception of wood waste from hundreds of entities from all sectors, supplemented by more than 600 containers for direct collection, which are distributed throughout the customers' facilities. 

 

The waste is classified and cleaned to remove contaminants, chipped and sent to the industrial units. By doing so, we are leveraging the potential of these wood residues, whether industrial or municipal, thus extending their life cycle and CO2 retention, culminating in greater added value for the business and the environment.
