Industries We Serve
Recycling for Packaging Operations
Packaging operations generate constant streams of OCC, plastic film, strapping, and trim from converting and assembly lines. CRI provides the equipment, containers, and pickup cadence to keep production floors clean and turn packaging waste into a revenue stream.
Turn Production Scrap Into Revenue
Converting and assembly lines produce a steady flow of trim, off-cuts, film, and cores. It is clean, it is high-grade, and it is generated in volume, which makes it some of the most valuable recyclable material a facility can have, if it is captured properly.
CRI places balers and containers right at the line, sets a pickup rhythm that matches your output, and ships each grade mill-direct. The result is a cleaner floor and a rebate check on material that was previously just in the way.

Packaging Recycling FAQ
Is our production trim worth recycling?
Almost always. Line trim and off-cuts are clean, sorted by nature, and generated in volume, which makes them high-value. CRI grades and ships them mill-direct so you capture that value instead of paying to dispose of it.
Can you place equipment right at our lines?
Yes. We size and position balers and containers at the point of generation so material is captured clean and handling is minimized. That keeps the floor clear and the grade high.
Can you run the same program at all of our plants?
Yes. CRI runs multi-site programs under one agreement with consolidated reporting, so every plant gets the same equipment, cadence, and accountability with one point of contact.
