Recycling with TIMG


TIMG are committed to sustainable practices and to ensuring our impact on the environment is minimised. To assist our clients in this space, TIMG works to reduce and recycle waste through our secure and environmentally friendly document destruction services.

HOW WE HELP

Why recycle?

We know that businesses in New Zealand are increasingly prioritising their sustainability goals and objectives to ensure that accountability is taken for the environmental impacts of each process within their business. TIMG are determined to support our clients in this pursuit, significantly reducing the volume of business waste being sent to landfill by disposing of paper waste responsibly.

TIMG’s current environmental initiatives focus on recycling paper to pulp, without compromising the security of the information held within these physical documents, files and folders.

We are committed to developing further sustainability programs and are constantly investigating ways in which we could facilitate other responsible practices in our secure day-to-day operations.

It is then compressed into bales and sent to a paper mill to be recycled to pulp. Following that, the pulp is taken to a paper recycling facility to be made into these items (amongst others):
