Ace Recycling to Locate in Chester

Ace Recycling announced that they would be operating an indoor materials recovery facility at The Sustainability Park in Chester. The project is expected to create approximately 30 new jobs and represents an investment of more than $6 million. The company will be modifying a 69,000 sq. ft. building to achieve a gold rating from the U.S. Green Building Council.

Ace Recycling is a processor specializing in construction and demolition debris recycling, which commonly includes cardboard and paper, carpet, concrete, dirt, metal, plastic, wallboard and wood. Many of those materials can be reused and recycled. All of the activities will be conducted indoors, including the receipt of the material, sorting and separating debris, secondary processing, and loading outbound trucks.

Ace Recycling will be permitting its operations through the Department of Environmental Quality, a requirement for new materials recovery facilities. The company is hoping to have the facility operational by summer.
