Abbotsford's Enviro-Corp Recycling transforming glass into rocks
Enviro-Corp's enviro-rock, a durable foam glass aggregate, is now approved for use in major infrastructure projects including SkyTrain expansions and city facilities, supporting sustainable construction.
- In Abbotsford, Enviro-Corp Recycling converts collected glass into enviro-rock, a lightweight foam glass aggregate used across the Lower Mainland.
- The City of Abbotsford partners with Recycle BC, and Enviro-Corp Recycling has operated for nearly 20 years in Abbotsford.
- Enviro-Corp Recycling transports glass dust to a Quesnel oven, the only Canadian facility capable of baking foam glass aggregate, into a lightweight enviro-rock.
- Facing high dust levels, Enviro-Corp encountered increased dust as it processed glass, highlighting safety challenges.
- While enviro-rock offers sustainable alternatives, Sebastian Naslund said cost is the main barrier, as gravel remains cheaper despite shipping costs.
