Orora`s new glass processing plant in South Australia has begun operations, with the $25 million facility expected to recycle 150,000 tonnes of post-consumer glass each year, which will be shipped to the neighbouring company`s glass production plant. Orora CEO Brian Lowe and South Australian Deputy Premier Susan Close officially opened the highly automated facility this morning. The governments of South Africa and the Commonwealth have provided approximately $8 million in funding for the new facility. With just 12 employees and the latest optical technology, the highly automated facility will remove contaminants from used glass breakage through crushing, cleaning and sorting to provide shredded, non-polluting glass ready to be turned into new products. The new facility will allow the 900 million glass bottles produced at the company`s Gawler plant to be recycled at an average of 60% by 2025. All recycled glass is used by Orora for its beverages, including bottles of wine, beer, soft drinks, kombucha, water and olive oil. The construction of the new plant took only a year to overcome supply chain issues and introduce the latest European technology for the automated sorting process. Brian Lowe, CEO of Orora, described the processing plant as an important milestone in the company`s sustainability journey. “Our new world-class processing plant is a significant achievement, as it will increase the amount of glass recycled in our manufactured products, allowing us to process up to 150,000 tonnes per year, the equivalent of approximately 330 million bottles of wine or 750 million bottles of beer. This not only advances Orora`s sustainability agenda, but also enhances our ability to support our customers` sustainability goals, contributing to the circular economy and sustainability of the Australian glass industry.

Lowe said, “With our new oxygen furnace at Gawler, we are offering our customers a low-emission, highly recycled product. Close said: “Consumers are increasingly demanding recycled packaging, and this project makes a significant contribution to the circular economy and sustainability of the glass industry in the state. “We appreciate the investments made by the Commonwealth and South African governments – they are in line with the government`s focus on increasing Australia`s capacity to produce high-quality recycled raw materials, investing in recycling and waste management infrastructure and creating new opportunities for resource recovery and reuse.” Lowe said the company sees plenty of growth opportunities in the domestic glass sector, saying, “Australia is still a net importer of glass bottles that could be made here and would reduce emissions in transit.” Lowe also said the beginnings of the rapprochement in Australia`s trade relationship with China were obvious, but said Orora did not foresee a resumption of wine trade, for which the company is a major supplier of glass bottles. Since the entry into force of the wine tariffs, which halted most Australian wine exports to China, Orora has turned to new lines of business and replaced any lost business. Lowe said: “Any easing of restrictions would be good news, and we would be willing to supply winemakers, but we have to wait and see.” A transition away from plastic bottles hasn`t started yet, with Lowe saying that when it happens, it will be aluminum cans rather than glass bottles. The company will invest about $200 million in the production of cans over the next three to four years.

The camouflage vest is perfect for hunting in Canada, it is very well built and comfortable. It was delivered quickly and had a great experience with the Cat customer service representative. She was very helpful. I recently bought a coat that was a little too small. I swapped it for a larger one that fits well and works wonderfully. Seamless process and workers were great.

I bought a jacket to the plug in my normal size and it was extremely large for me, and I didn`t find it hot. The battery was also extremely large in the pocket and rested uncomfortably on my hip bone. It was non-exchangeable and when I left a review (not negative at all, only the sizes were large), I was contacted by customer service and they kindly and unexpectedly offered me a gift card and returned the item I had purchased.
