Recycling
RADVA serves as one of the nation's 200 collection points for EPS and foam packages. We encourage all our customers to join us in this effort. Please call us at 800-35-RADVA to arrange for your materials to be recycled.
Environmental Sensitivity
RADVA Corporation has always been keenly aware of the responsibility
for protecting our environment. Our country's landfills are constructed
so that nothing - paper, plastic or even food - readily degrades. Therefore,
we must all work together to minimize what we put in our landfills.
There are two ways to minimize landfill use: source reduction and recycling.
RADVA products are manufactured from EPS and other engineered
cellular foams that are 100 percent recyclable. Recycled products are being
used to produce new protective foam packages, along with end use applications
such as videocassette cases, desk equipment, and toys.
RADVA products also contribute to source reduction because its light weight cuts packaging volume. Moreover, our products reduce solid waste by serving as top-notch protection during shipping and handling - preventing damage to thousands of products that would otherwise wind up in landfills.
In addition, the production of foam resins requires less energy than comparable cushioning products. And, the resins we use have never used ozone-depleting CFCs or HCFCs.
