Circular Economy: The Sustainable Loop of the Scotia Investments Family of Companies
The Scotia Investments Family of Companies operates within a circular economy, where resources flow efficiently between its businesses and partners to promote sustainability. A key example of this is the collaboration between Maritime Paper (MPPL), Scotia Recycling Limited (SRL), and partner paper mills.
MPPL generates scrap corrugated materials, such as cut-outs and overruns, which are collected by SRL and sold to paper mills. These mills recycle the material into new liner and medium board, which MPPL repurchases to manufacture fresh corrugated boxes—closing the loop on packaging sustainability.
Beyond this internal cycle, SRL also processes thousands of used corrugated containers from retailers and consumers, many originally produced by MPPL. Partner paper mills play a crucial role in this system by transforming recovered fibers into high-quality raw materials, ensuring continuous resource efficiency.
This interconnected system reflects Scotia Investments’ long-standing commitment to environmental stewardship. Through collaboration, MPPL, SRL, and partner paper mills create a truly sustainable cycle, reinforcing the environmental benefits of corrugated packaging.
