Manufacturing meets Sustainability
Creating a responsible supply chain starts with where and how we manufacture. These key factors help us deliver sustainable solutions every step of the way:

Lower Transportation Emissions
Producing and distributing from Texas means shorter travel distances and reduced greenhouse gas emissions compared to overseas manufacturing and shipping.
Less Packaging Waste
Local manufacturing means smarter, minimal packaging for shorter hauls, helping reduce excess materials and single-use plastics in transit.

Turning Waste into Resource
Our FDA-approved rPET Sheets are made from post-consumer PET, helping keep plastic out of landfills and lower carbon emissions compared to virgin plastic.

How PET
is recycled
PET is widely used in packaging—and widely recyclable.
It can be identified by the #1 resin identification code, often found at the bottom of containers like bottles, clamshells, and trays. Once collected, PET can be cleaned, processed, and turned into new products.
