Why We Chose GreenCircle

“Our New Hamburg facility has placed a focus on waste diversion opportunities and has achieved an outstanding landfill diversion rate. It was important for us to obtain third-party certification to add to the credibility of our efforts. GreenCircle takes a disciplined and fact-based approach and is committed to quality and transparency. Our GreenCircle certification helps us assess and maximize our waste diversion performance, and effectively communicate our achievements.”
