SUSTAINABILITY
When you partner with Elevate Solutions, you immediately have access to a team whose manufacturing practices are designed to be respectful, innovative, and thoughtful regarding the latest in plastic sustainability initiatives.
Our passion for building quality products extends beyond traditional molding. Let us share how PCR (post-consumer resins) are being used, how blowing agents can lower product weight, and how we are enhancing biodegradability of plastics in landfills.
RECYCLING
Recycling is in our DNA. Many of our plastic products are made with 100% Recycled materials. Where feasible, Elevate re-grinds materials and re-uses them in the manufacturing of new products.
LANDFILL
Using a 100% organic additive, Elevate has established a method for enhanced biodegradation. Third party testing using ASTM D5511 standards shows a linear path toward complete decomposition.*

WASTE REDUCTION
Elevate is a multi-year recipient of the Pratt Environmental Impact Award, using 100% recycled corrugated for all of its shipping and packaging needs. Employees also recycle consistently using clearly marked containers throughout the facility.
CIRCULAR ECOMONY
Elevate partners with likeminded entities to become better stewards for our planet. In one instance, white plastic forks and yogurt cups are collected and ground for re-purposing. We build new products with recycled materials, preventing them from going into a landfill.
In addition to all of the above, we help to engineer products for lower part weight, reducing carbon emissions at transport. Where possible, we minimize packaging to reduce material use, while balancing the need to protect product.
Our continuous improvement efforts are enhanced by our customer partnerships where we share ideas and knowledge to work together toward more responsible manufacturing practices and higher sustainability scores.
