IT’S EASY BEING GREEN!

 Sustainable, as defined by the Merriam Webster Dictionary, is “a method of harvesting or using a resource so that the resource is not depleted or permanently damaged.”

At Box 1, Inc. we are dedicated to meeting the growing needs of our customers and concerned not only with the environmental impact we have on our planet, but just as importantly, the impact that we have locally where we live and work.  All of the corrugated materials used at Box 1 come from responsibly managed forests certified by the Forest Stewardship Council, and contain at least 30% to 35% recycled content.  Whenever requested, we can use 100% recycled content to meet with the “Green” standards required by many of our environmentally conscious customers. 
One hundred percent of all of the corrugated waste created at Box 1, Inc. is recycled.  Several of our customers that do not currently have recycling programs regularly return used boxes to our facility for us to recycle for them.  Box 1 also provides recycling boxes to several Elementary, Middle, and High Schools across Northwest Georgia and Southeast Tennessee.
