Schnider AG opens waste disposal center in Sulgen
Schnider AG recently put its new waste disposal center in Sulgen into operation. Here, recyclable materials are collected from the waste of industry, construction and private individuals. Some recyclables are processed by Schnider itself, the others are delivered to appropriate companies.
On August 3, 2020, the first deliveries at the new waste management center of the Schnider AG arrived in Sulgen, informs a Post in the "Tagblatt". Among other things, the new disposal center in Sulgen is intended to shorten transport routes. This makes "sense from an ecological and economic point of view," explains Reto Schnider, who is quoted in the article.
The company, located in Engelburg, St. Gallen, now covers the catchment area of eastern Switzerland with three sites in Engelburg, Herisau AR and Sulgen. At the new location, the company has hired three new employees for the time being. They are currently still supported by employees from Engelburg, the article explains.
"In Thurgau, we already have some major customers from trade and industry," Managing Director Schnider is quoted as saying in the article. "With the new location, we want to expand our activities in a wider radius." In doing so, the company is trying to sell the collected raw materials in Switzerland "whenever possible."
At the disposal center in Sulgen, the recyclables handed in are "professionally sorted and stored until an optimal transport quantity is reached," writes the "Tagblatt". Most recyclables are then transferred to appropriate companies for reprocessing. Some recyclables, including scrap wood, are processed by Schnider AG itself at its plant in Engelburg.
