Midlab, Inc. is a proud supporter of the environment.

Our Environmental Policy ensures the protection of the environment through the utilization and management of natural resources. “Everything Clean” may be the driving philosophy behind our company, but is not solely limited to our product’s ability to clean effectively and efficiently. “Everything Clean” also encompasses our shared responsibility to improve the quality of the world we live in. We promote the recycling of all applicable products and make continuous efforts to improve the environment where we can. We do this because we believe in a healthier, CLEANER standard of living for all of our planet’s inhabitants. At Midlab, we believe in a better future.

Industry Trendsetter Turned Leader in Sustainability

Our Plant Recycling Program is a comprehensive solution to improved sustainability. We responsibly dispose of numerous recyclable materials, including cardboard and plastic— two of the biggest contributors to waste in facilities like ours.

While many of our green efforts take place on the manufacturing side, we proudly lead by example in all stages of our business lifecycle. We currently recycle 95% of all cardboard and plastic used in our manufacturing process and aim to keep that number rising.

“Our ‘Everything Clean’ philosophy is a way of doing business that extends to protecting the environment. In any industry, it’s important to do your part and we at Midlab are excited to be leading by example.”

– Matt Schenk, President

Get Involved in Sustainability

  • Recycle. Recycling sends less waste to landfills that are polluting our environment at an alarming rate. A simple online search will show you where your nearest recycling facility is located. Materials such as paper, aluminum, cardboard, plastic, and glass are some of the most common items accepted at most recycling facilities.
  • Reduce your carbon footprint by using less energy. Installing energy-efficient lights, machinery, and equipment into your facility will impact your energy use substantially and save on wasted resources, including internal costs.
  • Do your research. Purchase cleaning products that were formulated under strict, eco-friendly standards. Use distributors that actively participate in green initiatives and consistently work to improve the environment in all stages of their product lifecycles.
