Green-Port Environmental

What Green-Port Environmental does

Green-Port Environmental Managers Ltd. is an Ontario-based, privately held environmental services company founded in 1995 that provides turn-key environmental site services, waste disposal, and scrap transformer and oil recycling. The company operates an MOE-approved <50 ppm PCB transfer, recycling and treatment facility at 64 Todd Road in Georgetown, Ontario, and serves over 65 Ontario utilities along with multiple Fortune 500 companies. Its core service lines include transformer and used oil recycling, PCB waste management and treatment, substation decommissioning, hazardous and non-hazardous waste disposal, asset recovery and recycling, and specialty environmental services such as Phase I/II site assessments and abatement. The company also maintains a Sudden Response Unit for emergency transformer oil spills and offers transformer refurbishment through partnerships with local manufacturers.

The company's technical differentiation rests on a proprietary cleaning process for decontaminating obsolete transformer and cable metals to meet Environment Canada 2008 PCB Regulations, in-house laboratory testing with serial-number tracking, and a unique transformer retro-filling and reclassification process that allows low-level PCB transformers to be reclassified as non-PCB without full recycling. It has processed over 15 million kg of PCB waste since 1995 with zero environmental incidents and achieves a 96%+ recycling rate by weight at its facility. The Georgetown facility incorporates 25+ green design initiatives equivalent to LEED standards, and the company holds four MOE Certificates of Approval alongside ISO 9001 and 14001 certifications.

Green-Port operates a project-based, transaction-fee revenue model with no recurring subscription component. Revenue is generated through quoted project fees, per-bin round-trip and per-metric-ton tipping fees for roll-off services, and asset value recovery through ferrous and non-ferrous metal recycling and bulk oil reclamation that partially offsets customer costs. Go-to-market is primarily direct enterprise field sales targeting utilities, Fortune 500 companies, and government agencies, supplemented by self-serve drop-off at the Georgetown facility for residential and SMB customers. Distribution is single-country domestic across Ontario and other Canadian provinces, with no public pricing or digital commerce channels.

Revenue model

1. Environmental Site Services & Waste Disposal: Green-Port generates revenue through project-based fees for turn-key environmental site services including PCB disposal and treatment, hazardous/non-hazardous waste disposal, substation decommissioning, and site remediation. Pricing is quoted per project with per bin round trip and per metric ton tipping fees. Revenue is primarily one-time project fees with no recurring subscription component.
2. Transformer & Oil Recycling Services: Green-Port collects obsolete transformers and used oil, processes them at its MOE-approved facility, and provides certificates of recycling, destruction, or disposal. Revenue is generated through service fees for collection, transport, processing, and recycling, with scrap transformer and oil asset values offsetting costs through credits.
3. Asset Recovery & Product Destruction: Green-Port recovers and recycles various assets (street lights, meters, e-waste, catalytic converters, etc.) and provides product destruction services. Revenue is earned through service fees and by selling recovered materials (ferrous and non-ferrous metals).
4. Specialty Services (Phase I/II ESAs, Abatement, Tank Removals): Green-Port provides specialty environmental consulting and remediation services including Phase I and II Environmental Site Assessments, asbestos/lead/mercury/mould abatement, and above/below ground tank removals. Revenue is project-based professional services.
