“Red Leaf is an excellent example of combining opportunity with sustainability, and we’re excited to welcome them to the Regina region,” Regina Mayor Sandra Masters said. “More than ever, Regina has what the world needs, and we look forward to working with Red Leaf to seeing this project to fruition.” Red Leaf’s process uses less energy and less water than traditional pulp manufacturing, while creating a new use for a raw material that has traditionally been considered waste. The fibre produced can be used as a biodegradable alternative to polystyrene packaging as well as other paper products. Byproducts of the process include a nutrient-rich organic liquid that can be used as fertilizer and, potentially, low carbon-intensity biofuels.
