Creating sustainable Dunnage with Peninsula Plastics

With Peninsula Plastics, sustainability is a top priority. We understand that the true essence of sustainable packaging is not only about recycling, but also about forming products that can be reused over many cycles. Through innovative packaging designs, eco-friendly production processes, and our Buyback Program, we are making leaps toward a waste-free environment.

Designed to Minimize Impact

Peninsula Plastics specializes in developing durable and reusable TUFF DUNNAGE® solutions, including thermoformed containers, trays, pallets, and lids. Our products are strategically engineered to withstand multiple uses within any supply chain system, supporting a decreased environmental impact. In return, this benefits the environment and provides our clients with long-term, cost-effective packaging.

Turning Waste into Opportunity

Dedicated to a zero-waste philosophy, we ensure each step of our production process is geared toward minimizing waste. We go the extra mile to collect and repurpose plastic generated during our manufacturing process. This includes the collection of shavings, debris, and scrap materials. Once collected, materials are reprocessed into regrind resources that are then reintegrated into the forming process. This approach helps reduce waste and showcases our commitment to harnessing innovation for a sustainable future.

Taking Responsibility Beyond Our Facilities

Peninsula Plastics facilitates a comprehensive Buyback Program for our clients that supports the recycling and reusing of packaging that has reached its end-of-life. This program not only aligns with our dedication to responsible recycling practices, but also provides our clients with a valuable and environmentally conscious replacement.

Investing in a Greener Future

Recognizing the importance of continuous improvement within sustainability, we actively invest in opportunities to improve our processes. The goal is to explore creative ideas to further reduce our environmental impact through greener processes and materials. By staying at the forefront of technological advancements, we aim to contribute to the establishment of a circular economy. Within this model, resources are reused and recycled, waste is minimized, and leads to the preservation of our planet.

Choosing Peninsula Plastics’ thermoformed and injection molded solutions means more than using high-quality returnable packaging. You are also partnering with a company that is devoted to a sustainable future.
