Our Approach To Sustainability
Great Northern Rollguard feels a responsibility to help the world and people around us. We have the means to make a difference and we intend to take advantage of our position to help others and the environment.
Materials
All of our paperboard products are made from recyclable corrugated fiber pulp. All of these materials are 100% recyclable. Great Northern Rollguard is committed to helping its customers choose packaging solutions with the environment in mind.
Production
We have an internal focus centered on process improvement, with a commitment to invest in equipment and practices that reduce the amount of energy, natural resources and waste required to operate our businesses. Great Northern manufacturing facilities meet all applicable Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), state, and local environmental rules and regulations to minimize our impact to the air, soil and water.
Distribution
Working with our internal logistics partner, the Great Northern team has successfully implemented several initiatives that have enabled us to improve our logistics through more efficient routing, better cube utilization of trailers and fewer empty hauls.
Use
We design and engineer cradle solutions that utilize fewer materials, are produced with more eco-friendly processes, and ultimately reduce the impact our packaging has on the environment. Great Northern Rollguard is committed to this process to help improve outcomes on sustainability scorecards while having the potential for cost reduction.
Product End of Life
Once the product has been used for its intended purpose, all materials are 100% curbside recyclable. It’s our goal to ensure as much of the packaging is put back into the supply chain as possible.
