About Greenwave
Greenwave Technology Solutions, Inc., through its wholly owned
subsidiary Empire Services, Inc. ("Empire"), is a leading operator
of 13 metal recycling facilities in Virginia, North
Carolina, and Ohio. The Company's
recycling facilities collect, classify, and process raw scrap metal
(ferrous and nonferrous) and implement several unique technologies
to increase metal processing volumes and
operating efficiencies, including a downstream recovery
system and cloud-based ERP system.
Steel is one of the world's most recycled products with the
ability to be re-melted and re-cast numerous times. Recycling steel
provides key environmental benefits over virgin metals, including
reduced energy use, lower CO2 emissions, lower waste, and
conserving natural resources. Greenwave's customers include large
corporations, industrial manufacturers, retail customers, and
government organizations. The Company plans to aggressively expand
its footprint of locations by acquiring independent, profitable
scrap yards in the coming months. For more information, please
