As leaders in creating sustainable packaging and supply chain solutions, our businesses design out waste (reduce), keep products in use (reuse) and repurpose resources (recycle). By reducing our impact on the environment, we also help our customers achieve their sustainability goals. Our environmental reduction achievements have been notable. From 2010 to 2020, we reduced water use nearly 90%, solid waste generation 9%, and GHG emissions 1.15% despite doubling the size of our company during that time. In 2020, we established new environmental goals described below.
Reduce gallons of water used per production ton by 10% by 2030 (2020 baseline).
Reduce landfill waste per ton of production by 10% by 2030 (2020 baseline).
Reduce total GHG emissions by 10% per ton of production by 2030 (2020 baseline).
Sustainability branches out.As part of our ongoing sustainability efforts, Menasha is proud to be working with the Arbor Day Foundation, which has been inspiring people to plant, nurture, and celebrate trees since 1972. For the past fifty years, the Foundation has worked with members, supporters, and a network of partners to plant and distribute over 500 million trees worldwide.
We drive sustainability every day and it starts in our design centers, where innovation is cultivated with an understanding that everything we create has an impact on sustainability.
Putting sustainability on display.
Our designers are experienced in optimizing materials, while ensuring that structural integrity and quality aren’t compromised. Material reduction efforts enable customer sustainability initiatives and optimize cost factors.
It’s in the paper.
We design all our packaging, merchandising and signage with paper that is SFI sustainably sourced, meaning it only comes from forests that are sustainable in nature.
Minimal to the max.
Good designs win with consumers. But they also win in the supply chain. Our team not only thinks about how to engage consumers, but how packages or displays pack out, how they cube out a pallet, and how cubing of pallets can reduce the number of trucks required. These efforts optimize materials, pallets, and trucks on the road.
98% recyclable materials. 100% fresh ideas.
If a package or display ultimately ends up in a fulfillment center, our team is always thinking about how it’s assembled, how it will flow through a pack-out line, and what can be done to optimize the fulfillment process. It’s another example of how front-end design optimization drives a sustainable, optimized process on the back end.
We’re taking plastic off the shelf.
