ABOUT US
The Société de récupération des appareils commerciaux (SORAC, Commercial Appliance Recovery Society) is a non-profit organization responsible for the recycling program of refrigeration and freezing appliances designed and intended for commercial or institutional use throughout Quebec.
The program allows to safely process the hazardous components the recovered products contain, such as:
- Refrigerant gases and blowing agents used to expand insulating foam

- Compressor oils
- Printed circuit boards and other electronic components
The program put in place by SORAC has the following objectives:
- Enable the members to meet the requirements of the Regulation Respecting the Recovery and Reclamation of Products by Enterprises
- Ensure that products concerned are recycled in a responsible manner that protects the environment and the health and safety of the workers
- Implement, throughout Quebec, a program that aims for recovery and reclamation rates in accordance with the Regulation
- Keep operating and management costs as low as possible
The minimum recovery target set out in the Regulation is 35% starting in 2026
