    Happy World Sustainability Day! 🌱 At Kuusakoski, we’ve been working towards a cleaner tomorrow every day for the past 110 years by transforming waste into valuable raw materials. We believe that maximising the life cycle of materials is key to resource efficiency and a sustainable economy. Thanks to our long-standing expertise, our metals recycling rate is 94%, well above the industry average. We are aiming to increase this rate to 97%, keeping materials in circulation for longer. Higher quality recycled raw materials reduce the need for virgin resources, and this not only enhances material usability for our customers but also helps them lower their carbon footprint. ♻️ To help our customers better assess their environmental impact, we have created a carbon footprint calculator, offering transparent, reliable data and making their sustainability journey measurable and impactful. 📈 Additionally, we’re committed to becoming carbon neutral in our own operations by 2035, and our dedication earned us silver-level EcoVadis recognition in 2023. Learn more about our sustainability journey in the link below and let's work together for a greener future! #Kuusakoski #KuusakoskiRecycling #WorldSustainabilityDay #Sustainability #CircularEconomy

    Our brand-new cooling equipment recycling plant in Hyvinkää, Southern Finland, is almost ready to launch! 👏 ❓ What are the benefits of this new technology? 💭 The crushing process is closed, with nitrogen gas injected to reduce oxygen and prevent the combustion of highly flammable polyurethane. After crushing, metals are separated, and polyurethane is cooled and pelletised. As CEO Mikko Kuusilehto explains, “This solution allows electronics waste collected from consumers to be recycled entirely in Finland, saving 1,500 tons of carbon emissions per year in recycling logistics, while also boosting the circular economy in Finland.” Business Director Tapio Kuusakoski adds, “It is particularly important to consider the environmental impact when handling cooling equipment. Our new technology captures harmful VHF and VHC gases, ensuring that all metals and plastics are recovered for recycling into new products or processes.” This plant is not just a technological achievement—it’s a commitment to reducing emissions by up to 60%, aligning with our sustainability goals. 🌱 Find out more from the link in the comments (in Finnish). #Kuusakoski #KuusakoskiRecycling #Sustainability #Innovation #CircularEconomy

    We are excited to introduce Kuusakoski's Carbon Footprint Calculator! 🌍 Not only does this tool help our customers with transparent emissions reporting but also in planning more effective and sustainable operations. It calculates emissions from logistics to and from Kuusakoski, processing, and raw materials, while showcasing the carbon handprint of recycling efforts—all based on real, verified data. Built on the globally recognized Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Protocol, the calculator helps to visualize the critical role of recycling in reducing lifecycle emissions. ♻️ Currently available for purchase via our customer portal for Finnish customers, with plans to extend the service to other countries soon. Stay tuned! #Kuusakoski #KuusakoskiRecycling #Sustainability #CarbonFootprint #CircularEconomy

    ⚡ International E-Waste Day Reminder! ⚡ Take a moment to observe your surroundings—how much e-waste is hiding around you? It’s not just phones and laptops; think about home appliances like TVs and stoves, office equipment like printers, IT servers, medical devices, cords, adapters, and even children’s toys. Electronics are everywhere, and they all require proper handling. Many people replace electronics not because they’re broken, but because newer models hit the market. From an environmental perspective, using devices until the end of their lifespan is the most sustainable choice. Some of your old devices may still have life left in them! To make e-waste disposal easier and safer, SEIFFI—a service created by SER-kierrätys, Kuusakoski, Inrego, and Posti Group Oyj—ensures that your data devices are securely wiped, tested, refurbished for resale, or responsibly recycled. ♻️ Find out more in the link in the comments (in Finnish). Let’s make sure our e-waste gets the proper treatment it deserves! #Kuusakoski #KuusakoskiRecycling #EwasteDay #Sustainability #Recycling #EWaste

    Today is World Mental Health Day—a reminder of how vital it is to take care of our mental well-being. ❤️🩹 To support this cause, Kuusakoski has joined forces with Finnish rock icons Apulanta to create Mielilava—a unique initiative where scrap metal donations are turned into funding for MIELI Suomen Mielenterveys ry – MIELI Mental Health Finland, an organisation that has been offering life-changing mental health support in Finland for over 120 years. The Mielilava container has been stationed at Apulandia in Lahti, and now, it’s getting ready to make its way to Tampere for Apulanta's highly anticipated concert at Nokia Arena! 🎸🎤 If you're in the area, keep an eye out for the black container during the last two weeks of October and join us in making a positive impact. Let’s support mental health together by turning scrap into support! 🙏 Big thanks to all who’ve already contributed! #Kuusakoski #KuusakoskiRecycling #WorldMentalHealthDay #MieliRy #Apulanta #Mielilava

    Test your e-waste knowledge 💡 E-waste is the fastest-growing waste problem in the world. Every year, around 50 million tons of it is generated globally—that’s like throwing out 1,000 laptops every single second! 💻 E-waste contains valuable materials like copper and gold, but it also has harmful chemicals and plastics that need proper recycling. Another key aspect to consider is data security. Devices hold tons of information, and safe disposal means ensuring proper data destruction through methods like data wiping, shredding, and degaussing. At Kuusakoski, we're committed to safe, efficient e-waste management—protecting both the environment and your data. Learn more from the link in the comments. 🔐 How much of the world's e-waste do you think is formally recycled? Answer the poll, and we’ll reveal the correct percentage on October 10th! #Kuusakoski #KuusakoskiRecycling #EwasteRecycling #CircularEconomy #DataSecurity #Sustainability

    Our Composite Treatment Plant in Hyvinkää, Finland, is almost ready to start operating! ♻️ Peak in with Anu Söderena, who is not just a great mind in business development but also a natural talent on video. The facility will shred composite materials safely and effectively, addressing the rising demand for sustainable recycling solutions as composite waste increases from wind turbines, airplanes, boats, and more. “Our investment brings the circular economy solution piloted in Germany to Finland. With it, we can provide the best industrial-scale recycling process for composite materials locally,” says Mikko Kuusilehto, President and CEO of Kuusakoski Recycling. The plant’s innovative process, first tested in the award-winning KiMuRa project, will enable 100% utilisation of shredded composite material in cement production. Shredded composite reduces the need for new raw materials, and is cutting down on CO2 emissions at the same time. It is a double win for the energy-intensive cement manufacturing process. With two shredders, covered conveyors, a magnet, and a crucial dust control system, our new plant is poised to set new standards in composite recycling. Stay tuned for more updates as we gear up to start operations! #Kuusakoski #KuusakoskiRecycling #CircularEconomy #Sustainability #CompositeRecycling #Innovation
