Going Green With RBS Sanitation

Going Green is more than something we do – it’s our passion!

RBS Sanitation is committed to “Green”

Our planet’s resources will, at some point no longer be as readily available. That means we have to be responsible with our plastics, glass, metals and yes, even energy. By green recycling and being eco friendly we are saving the energy it takes to create new materials, in turn lowering greenhouse gas emissions. It really is a win-win.

Check below the products that will help us keep it green! Want to know how you can help more? Check out our recycling ideas for both at home and in the workplace.

How does recycling help the environment?

The recycling process can be divided into three stages: collection, processing and marketing. Collection is the first stage where old goods are gathered; Processing is the second stage where recycled material are sorted out; Marketing is the third stage where recycled products are sold.

Recycling has many benefits for both people and planet. It helps to reduce air pollution in urban areas, it creates jobs and reduces landfill space, it conserves natural resources (e.g., fossil fuels) and it saves money!
