BGL says the acquisition of Fielding's specialized processing capabilities and Part B permit will allow for the realization of material internalization and organic cross-selling growth opportunities within GFL's existing environmental services network. Fielding's location in the greater Toronto area serves as a significant catalyst for GFL's prospective growth, the company says.
