Testrite's Commitment to the Planet

Return to Our Blog

Green Policy

Our commitment to the environment

Recycle

Aluminum, steel and corrugated are our major material components.

25% of our Aluminum currently comes from recycled billet, and will increase as more becomes available.

Steel recycled content currently averages 58%.

Corrugated medium and liner board (boxes) currently average 70% recycled content.

As a U.S. manufacturer, Testrite utilizes local suppliers reducing transportation impact.  As example, note that the carbon footprint of a Toyota Prius built in Asia is greater than a Chevrolet Surburban.  

Many of our designs are telescopic, facilitating less packaging and transportation.

88% of our scrap metals are recycled. 60% of our corrugated waste is converted into usable packaging.

We routinely recycle our brand aluminum products when returned to us by customers.
