In Saskatchewan, the Chamber of Commerce names Emterra Environmental a finalist in the Saskatchewan Chamber of Commerce 2014 Achievements in Business Excellence Awards
By: Emterra Group - Emterra Environmental Emterra relentlessly seeks to lead in the area of environmental sustainability in the communities it serves. It strives to realize a world where there is “zero waste”, which means waste is converted into resources and diverted from landfills. The Saskatchewan Chamber of Commerce has taken notice, naming Emterra in the Environment category, as the award recognizes “…business that demonstrates excellence in the development of innovative programs, products and/or services offering improvement for environmental purposes. Improvements may relate to soil, air, water, noise or visual pollutants, or energy conservation.” Led by Founder and CEO Emmie Leung, Emterra Group has invested heavily to bring world class waste material recovery capabilities to Saskatchewan. In 2013, Emterra constructed its flagship recyclable processing facility employing LEEDS best practices to minimize the environmental impact of operations, while deploying cutting edge optical and mechanical sorting technology. This technology allows the facility to sort all types of materials recovered efficiently and effectively. It also allows for high throughput volumes of up to 50,000 tonnes annually. This capability allows Emterra to service the City of Regina, neighbouring municipalities, and industrial-commercial companies in the region. Leung was thrilled at the nomination for the prestigious award that has been in existence for over three decades. Leung beamed, “This is amazing. We’re very proud to stand among the leading businesses that have been named finalists in the ABEX Awards and we thank those who nominated and voted for us. For a company that has been part of the provincial business community for just over two years, this recognition is truly appreciated.” Emterra is proving that environmental and social responsibility can pay dividends business-wise, as well as by supporting employment in the local communities it serves. Emterra has created up to 30 jobs thus far and is projecting that this number will grow as the company expands to serve more municipal, institutional and business customers.
