Sonoco Products Company has joined forces with AMP Robotics to recycle the spiral wound paper canister with steel bottom produced by it and other manufacturers. Recycled steel usage has a 45 percent lesser environmental impact when compared to producing an equal amount from a virgin material, which, in turn, reduces the need for mining virgin iron ore. Also, reprocessing the paper container with steel bottom through steel or other streams has more than 40 percent lower environmental impact than landfilling. Any material recycling with an AMP Cortex intelligent robotics system can now efficiently classify Sonoco’s paper can to the desired stream.
