Specials, deals, terms - all you need to know about the 2011 BFG Hort ExpoTRANSCRIPT
When companies do their part, it protects not only the environment, but our industry too. And the Myers Industries Lawn & Garden Group has been ahead of the curve for years, working with growers to reduce the plastics waste stream.
Since 1983, we have invested in technology to reprocess both post-consumer and post-industrial plastics into new containers. Our in-house reprocessing operations recycle more than 100 million pounds of plastic annually, a capability unlike any other manufacturer in our business!
By maintaining strict quality control, we create durable,high quality products while reducing waste and protecting the environment.
We want you to be part of the process!Contact a representative today about how you can get
involved in our plastic recycling program – 800-225-7712.
Learn more about our recycling capabilities at myerslawnandgarden.com
