GLR Recycling Solutions, Roseville, Mich., and Canada-based GEEP (Global Electric Electronic Processing) have agreed to co-manage an electronics recycling facility that will operate as GEEP Michigan.

The companies have hired Jack Iwema to serve as general manger of GEEP Michigan. Iwema and colleagues from GLR (formerly Great Lakes Recycling) and GEEP are currently studying prospective sites in the Detroit area to serve as the location of the facility. 

GLR, which has an 80-year history as a recycler of paper, metals and other commodities in the Detroit area, will bring its knowledge of private and public sector collection sources to the partnership.

“When fully operational, we expect to hire 50 to 75 employees to properly recycle e-waste in Michigan and surrounding areas,” writes GLR chief operating officer John Hawthorne in a recent company newsletter.

GEEP, based in Barrie, Ontario, positions itself as an “industry leader for investment recovery in North America [with] state-of-the-art recycling facilities and innovative equipment for electronics processing.”

In addition to its original Ontario location and the new Michigan one, GEEP also has plants in Durham, N.C.; Grand Prairie, Texas; and Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
