Description

At Evergreen, we’re in business to change the world. Evergreen was originally founded in 1998 to provide a sustainable, reliable supply of quality polyester resin. Each year, Evergreen recycles billions of PET bottles, keeping them out of landfills, oceans, rivers, forests, and roadways. We also produce hundreds of millions of pounds of recycled PET plastic that goes into new bottles and other products. There’s another important side to Evergreen.
