Material Recovery Facility (MRF).
A Material Recovery Facility, commonly referred to as an MRF, is a specialized plant designed to handle recyclable materials effectively. In these facilities, a variety of materials such as paper, plastics, metals, and glass are meticulously sorted, cleaned, and prepared for reuse or further processing. The MRF plays a crucial role in the recycling chain by ensuring that these materials are appropriately separated and treated, making them suitable for re-entry into the manufacturing cycle. By optimizing the recovery of valuable resources, MRFs contribute significantly to environmental sustainability and the reduction of waste heading to landfills.
