Preserving and protecting our environment is important to Omega Plastics, because it is simply the right thing to do. We take pride in being a part of our community, and have made great strides to continue the “green” quest. We strive to reuse, reduce and recycle in all aspects of our business including the following:
- Omega is a net consumer of recycled plastic compounds – We recycle the scrap we make, and buy considerable amounts of recycled materials from others to make environmentally friendly products for the markets we serve
- Scrap cardboard and packaging materials are collected and recycled
- Wood pallets are reused whenever possible, and when they are damaged the skids are collected and rebuilt by local businesses for consumption
- Aluminum and steel scrap from our tool construction department is collected and recycled
- Brass wire utilized in our state of the art Wire EDM processing is collected and recycled
- We receive and send electronic PO’s, invoicing and other business documents from suppliers and customers whenever possible
