At The HC Companies, we believe that sustainability is important for setting ourselves and our customers up to grow and improve our world by being stewards of the earth, its citizens, and the products we develop. In addition, designing more environmentally safe products to make them accessible and affordable to more people benefits our economy by normalizing those products and creating demand in the market.
Our facilities in Middlefield, Ohio, Sebring, Florida, and Sparks, Nevada produce growing containers made with post-industrial and post-consumer recycled or reprocessed resins*. Additionally, our Burlington, Canada facility, which produces our full line of fiber containers, utilizes 100% recycled newsprint, corrugate from our facilities, and raw newsprint in the production process and is proudly recognized as FSC® 100% Recycled. *The amount and stream of recycled and reprocessed resin may vary by product.

The notion of supporting a more circular economy should not only be a reality for the end-user of products but consistently applied throughout the manufacturer’s production process.
