TORONTO, Feb. 29, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Call2Recycle, Canada’s leading battery collection and recycling program, and Greentec, a leader in reverse logistics and recycling solutions for end-of-life electronic waste, announced today that they have signed an expanded agreement to increase Ontario’s battery sorting capacity.

多伦多，2024年2月29日（环球通讯社）--加拿大领先的电池收集和回收项目Call2Recycle和报废电子废物逆向物流和回收解决方案的领导者Greentec今天宣布，他们签署了一项扩大协议，以提高安大略省的电池分选能力。

This strategic partnership will optimize the battery recycling efforts in the province and enhance Canada’s overall recycling infrastructure. Under the expanded agreement, Greentec’s facility in Cambridge (Ontario) will provide battery sorting services to Call2Recycle starting May 2024. This initiative will further support Call2Recycle’s battery collection and recycling efforts in Ontario, where it serves as the largest registered battery Producer Responsibility Organization (PRO).

这一战略伙伴关系将优化该省的电池回收工作，并加强加拿大的整体回收基础设施。根据扩展协议，Greentec位于剑桥（安大略省）的工厂将从2024年5月开始为Call2Recycle提供电池分选服务。这一举措将进一步支持Call2Recycle在安大略省的电池收集和回收工作，它是安大略省最大的注册电池生产商责任组织（PRO）。

It will also help reduce the program's costs and environmental impact while maximizing operational efficiencies.   In 2023, Call2Recycle’s program saw an exceptional 58% growth in its collection of used batteries in Ontario. With the addition of Greentec as its third sorting partner in the province, Call2Recycle can ensure that the growing volume of used batteries collected in Ontario is exclusively sorted within the province.

它还将有助于降低该计划的成本和环境影响，同时最大限度地提高运营效率。2023年，Call2Recycle的项目在安大略省收集的废旧电池数量异常增长了58%。随着Greentec成为该省第三个分选合作伙伴，Call2Recycle可以确保安大略省收集的不断增长的废旧电池数量仅在该省内进行分选。

This approach not only helps reduce the transportation of used batteries and related carbon emissions but also supports the local economy and provincial waste management ecosystem as Call2Recycle continues to bolster program growth.    'This expansion of our partnership with Greentec marks another significant milestone in Call2Recycle’s commitment to further battery recycling capacities in Canada,' said Joe Zenobio, President of Call2Recycle Canada.

这种方法不仅有助于减少废旧电池的运输和相关的碳排放，而且还支持当地经济和省级废物管理生态系统，因为Call2Recycle继续推动项目的增长。加拿大Call2Recycle总裁乔·泽诺比奥（JoeZenobio）说：“我们与Greentec的合作关系的扩大，标志着Call2Recycle致力于在加拿大进一步提高电池回收能力的又一个重要里程碑。”。

'Together, we are not only reducing the environmental footprint and expanding capacity of the batter.

“我们共同努力，不仅减少了环境足迹，而且扩大了电池的容量。
