Albany MillerCoors Now Landfill-Free
Wednesday, September 25th, 2013
MillerCoors executives and local officials gathered Tuesday to announce that the Albany brewery is now landfill free and is recycling over 99 percent of its waste.
The move will eliminate 40 tons of waste that was previously being sent to a landfill each month.
The Albany plant is now the sixth MillerCoors brewery nationwide to become waste-free as part of the company’s effort to become more environmentally friendly. According to executives, the company has been working diligently to become better stewards of the communities in which they operate while also remaining economically viable.
“MillerCoors has always been environmentally conscience,” said MillerCoors Albany Brewery Vice President Tim Dill. “We want to maintain the beauty of our city. This is a major milestone for Albany and MillerCoors in general.”
