Saint-Gobain, through its building products subsidiary CertainTeed, will install recycling technology at its gypsum plant in Palatka, Florida, increasing the recycled content in its wallboard products manufactured in Palatka by 18,000 tons/year while also reducing the site’s carbon dioxide emissions by 2,260 tons/year.
The project represents a $1.1 million investment from CertainTeed and comes as Saint-Gobain continues to roll out its global Grow and Impact strategy, which includes reducing waste and increasing recycling efforts at its manufacturing sites.
