Recycling Day

As the only copper smelter in Canada, we play a leading role in the recycling of end-of-life electronic equipment.

As Canada's only copper smelter, we play a leading role in the recycling of end-of-life electronic equipment.

For more than 18 years now, we have been inviting the public to bring in their old electrical and electronic equipment on our Operation Recycle Day, so that it can be recycled properly.

This day is an opportunity for us to inform the public about the smelter's copper and precious metals recycling activities and the progress we are making on the environmental front. To find out which items are accepted, go to the Drop-off point section.

Recycling Day is back for a 18th edition!

Recycling Day is back this year! During this event, residents are invited to dispose of their obsolete electronic and small electrical appliances while learning more about our operations and projects that help improve our environmental performance.

When: September 7
Time : 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. 
Endroit : Horne Smelter parking lot, at the corner of avenue Portelance and 7e Rue
