In June 2007, Liberté obtained Recy-Québec’s ICI ON RECYCLE ! accreditation for its premises at Candiac and Brossard. In 2008, our Drummondville dairy was also accredited. In 2009, we are preparing our Saint-Hyacinthe plant for accreditation.
The ICI ON RECYCLE program was launched by the Government of Quebec through the government agency RECYC-QUÉBEC to recognize the efforts made by industries, businesses and institutions that have implemented measures in their establishments to ensure exemplary management of waste materials.
