Sustainability Commitment
A more sustainable business starts with your supply chain.
As part of Menasha Corporation, caring about our environment has been part of our fabric for 175 years. From sourcing to design, manufacturing to distribution, to the retail aisle and beyond, we understand the impact we have on the circular economy and are committed to continued leadership in this space. The circular economy concept — which is based on a continuous flow of product— is the future of a successful, sustainable supply chain.
The three principles of the circular economy include the 3Rs: Reduce, Reuse and Recycle. We are committed to designing out waste (reduce), keeping products in use (reuse) and repurposing resources (recycle).
Get circular with ORBIS. When your packaging is at end-of-life, Recycle with ORBIS is a convenient program designed to effectively recover, recycle and reprocess packaging into other useful product for your next program. With ORBIS, we help you close the loop, with zero impact to the solid waste stream.
“The combination of our turn-key innovative products, services, and solutions drives circularity and aligns with our customers’ business strategy, quality expectations, and sustainability goals.”
– Tom Estock, Director of Sustainability, ORBIS Corporation
