| Sustainability
In addition to recycling plastic that would otherwise end up in landfills, we are also diligently working toward protecting our environment through sustainability and green manufacturing practices.
Did You Know?
Every year we recycle more than 5 million pounds of plastic into environmentally sustainable products.
This is equivalent to 35 million milk jugs that would otherwise end up in a landfill. |
Our History
Plastic Recycling of Iowa Falls, formerly Hammer's Plastic Recycling, began processing mixed-plastic and manufacturing products from commingled plastic material in 1986. In 1988, our company won the State of Iowa Governor's Award for best exemplifying the achievements and contributions industry makes each year to Iowa and its communities.
Hammer's formed Plastic Recycling, Inc. in 1984 to design and build a production facility to recycle mixed-plastic waste into commercially viable products.
In 1997 new management was put in place; and in 1999 Hammer's Plastic Recycling Corp. became Plastic Recycling of Iowa Falls. Under new management, the plastic recycling business has flourished, and today, continues to expand its business of recycling plastic waste by manufacturing and selling products of commingled plastic.
