Plastipak Began Recycling More than 20 Years Ago
An early believer in recycling, Plastipak initiated a ground-breaking environmental
protection program in 1989 by starting its own recycling center, Clean Tech.

Clean Tech operates a modern facility guided by professionals with significant industrial experience.
Our support of this initiative has grown every bit as exponentially as our capacity to produce more
bottles has.

Plastipak's affiliation with Clean Tech reinforces our commitment to stay current with environmental
programs. Knowing we have a responsibility from design to disposal to meet sustainability standards,
we have engineered Clean Tech's recycling process to extend plastic's productive life.
The high grade level of output produced by this affiliate is of great benefit, since that output
supplies the raw materials for us to manufacture new high value food and beverage containers.
