Coles Group uses TonerPlas for new car park
September 10, 2024
Coles Group has made a significant stride in its commitment to sustainability with the installation of a new car park at Traralgon Village Shopping Centre, Victoria, featuring an innovative recycled asphalt additive known as TonerPlas.
Close the Loop announced that TonerPlas, its revolutionary recycled asphalt improvement additive, has been featured in the construction of the new car park at Coles Group’s Traralgon Village Shopping Centre in Victoria. This milestone marks a significant achievement in Close the Loop’s mission to contribute to a circular economy, as approximately 350,000 pieces of plastic waste were diverted from landfill during this project.
TonerPlas, made from a combination of recycled toner powder and soft plastics, is designed to enhance the performance and longevity of asphalt surfaces while promoting environmental responsibility. By using the Close the Loop’s innovative additive in this infrastructure project, the company not only improves the quality and durability of the car park but also reducing the environmental impact of construction.
Coles Group, one of Australia’s leading retailers with over 1,800 stores nationwide, shares Close the Loop’s vision of a sustainable future. Their commitment to incorporating recycled materials into key infrastructure highlights the growing importance of environmental stewardship in corporate practices. Together, the companies are paving the way for more sustainable construction methods, helping to close the loop on waste and making a meaningful impact on Australia’s recycling efforts.
As part of Close the Loop’s continued efforts to promote the circular economy, the company said it looks forward to more collaborations that transform waste into valuable resources, driving positive environmental change.
