Our Headquarters

Over the past few years, We've taken deliberate actions toward reducing our footprint in the office. From reducing our paper usage by half to implementing an email-only invoice policy, allowing us to decrease our printed paper consumption by approximately 30%. We also use only energy efficient light bulbs throughout our entire building and the Nest leaf setting on our thermostats, reducing our energy consumption 5%. Our goal is to continue improving and implementing sustainable practices throughout out company.

Our Philosophies

At Allen Field, we believe that cultivating sustainable practices help achieve higher efficiency and profitability. Our manufacturing facilities are ISO certified and we are in total control of all our procedures; including safety, performance, and use of materials. To minimize our waste, we recycle and reuse all the excess plastic generated during the production process. As a global supplier of plastic products, our raw materials are responsibly sourced only from trusted vendors. Nearly all of our packaging components are reusable and have biodegradable additives to aid in their decomposition. We have made it our mission to provide clean packaging solutions and encourage all of our customers to engage in recycling and reuse programs.
