Recleim
Recleim, founded in 2012, provides collection, transportation, de-manufacturing and resource recovery services for end-of-life appliances, HVAC units and vending machines for a variety of clients including utilities, retailers and manufacturers. Recleim converts the appliances and other items into commodities such as plastic, aluminum, copper, steel and pelletized foam, which are then sold for reuse. Recleim specializes in reducing Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions through the capture and destruction of Ozone Depleting Substances (ODS) and High-Global Warming Potential (GWP) gases that are used as refrigerants and as blowing agents contained in the insulation foam lining of some refrigerated units. Recleim currently operates facilities across the Midwest and along the Eastern Seaboard and has advanced de-manufacturing facilities in Graniteville, South Carolina, Philadelphia, Pa. and Lima, Ohio.
