As a leading user of compost in North America, we are uniquely positioned to drive circularity. By redirecting green waste, such as grass, tree trimmings and organic waste from commercial landscaping, tree cultivation and agriculture into our products, we reduce waste that may have otherwise gone to landfills and contributed to methane emissions. Through our products, these waste materials re-enter the growing cycle as soils, growing amendments and mulches. Our company recycled roughly 5.5 billion pounds of green waste in 2023.
