This program:
- promotes businesses,
- sustains our environment by creating jobs,
- improves markets for recycled products,
- reduces manufacturing waste and pollution,
- reduces energy consumption,
- diverts waste from landfills
- and supporting the goal of a circular economy.
State agencies are leaders in the state and are important purchasers with significant buying power to drive markets for recycled content products.
