In all, the audit encompasses more than 50 areas of operational and environmental performance, and ensures that companies manage not only the responsible recycling of materials in their own facility, but also in those further downstream in the recycling process.

With this certification in place at Clover, customers can are assured that the company will continue to lead the industry in environmental and public health, worker health and safety, security (data and facility), and chain of custody practices.
