Welcome to cansmart® - the steel can recycling website.
93% of households in Australia now have access to steel can recycling with 44% of steel cans being sent back for recycling. However, every year each Australian sends around 3.5 kilograms of steel cans to landfill - that's enough steel to make 40,000 fridges!
Recycling steel cans helps to protect our environment in three ways:
- It saves precious natural resources
- It saves energy
- It reduces landfill
The cansmart® website is dedicated to promoting steel can recycling.
We have information for householders, waste educators, manufacturers and marketers, and students. You can find everything from a Householders Guide to Steel Can Recycling, to the new Recyclable Steel Logo which brand owners can download and incorporate directly into their labelling.
