Sparta’s (SAY) e-waste recycling division, ERS International, has signed a deal with GM Canada.
ERS is a high-security electronics recycler with a processing facility in Toronto. It currently serves well-known brands in computer technology, banking, insurance, retail, and health care, as well as municipal governments.
ERS will recycle electronics from GM’s 5.1-million-square-foot manufacturing facility in Oshawa, Ontario. This includes tracking the materials throughout the recycling process and providing GM with certificates of destruction.
The partnership is part of GM’s sustainability efforts as electronics become a more essential part of the automotive industry.
“The agreement with General Motors, which is such an illustrious, well-known brand, will provide us with added streams of revenue and allow us to divert literally thousands and thousands of tonnes of waste from landfills,” stated John O’Bireck, Sparta’s President and CTO.
“Since we are the only e-waste recycling facility in North America with an advanced laboratory, we can efficiently extract valuable metals, including gold, silver, and palladium, all while tracking each item to account for 100 per cent of the waste throughout the recycling process,” he added.
Sparta Group owns interests in businesses that reduce energy inefficiencies, achieve reduced emissions and increase operating efficiencies.
Sparta Group (SAY), listed as Sparta Capital, is up by 60 per cent trading at $0.04 per share as of 11:56 am EST.
