RPP Containers Continues Commitment to Environmental Sustainability
CINCINNATI, OH (January 08, 2020) – RPP Containers® a leading custom manufacturer, stocking distributor, and recycler of reusable plastic bulk containers, used by a wide range of industrial and commercial customers, continues to strengthen its commitment to keep plastic bulk containers out of landfills.
“Since the company’s founding in 1998, RPP Containers’ commitment to environmental sustainability has grown over the years,” said Scott DeNoma, co-founder and chairman of RPP Containers. “In 2019, RPP Containers recycled around 31,000 pounds of bulk container plastic per week, which amounts to 1.6 million pounds for the year. And, to continue our efforts to help preserve the environment, we anticipate an increase in the amount of plastic we recycle in 2020.”
To prevent plastic bulk containers from becoming solid waste in landfills, RPP Containers buys damaged and out-of-use containers, from customers, and recycles them in two ways. Containers that are damaged, but repairable, are refurbished into useable containers and sold under the RefurBest®
brand. Containers too damaged to be refurbished are ground up, and a portion of the plastic regrind is used in the manufacturing of premium new containers and sold under the DuraGreen®
brand.
“Essentially, you could say that we are selling and recycling plastic bulk containers that have a life cycle that never ends, “said DeNoma. “Our containers can be reused for years, and can also be recycled at the end of their useful life, which not only contributes to environmental sustainability, but also helps our company grow and provide new jobs.”
In July 2019, RPP Containers for improved efficiencies and to lay a foundation for future growth, consolidated its operations into a new 123,000 sq. ft. headquarters facility, located in a revitalized area of Cincinnati, OH.
“Essentially, you could say that we are selling and recycling products that potentially have a life cycle that never ends,” says DeNoma. “Contributing to environmental sustainability helps our company continue to grow and provide new jobs.”

In today's dynamic industrial landscape, where efficiency and sustainability drive success, the right bulk handling solution can transform operations. The DuraGreen® 57 x 45 CenterFlow Hopper Bottoms continue to lead the charge as a versatile, reusable powerhouse for dry bulk materials.

In the fast-paced worlds of agriculture, manufacturing, food and beverage, seed and feed, and logistics, efficiency isn't just a buzzword; it's a necessity. Handling bulk materials, such as seeds, grains, pellets, resins, and powders, can be a logistical nightmare if you're stuck with outdated or unreliable containers.
In today’s fast-paced agricultural industry, efficiency, food safety, and durability are more important than ever. One of the biggest improvements in produce handling has been the shift from traditional wooden crates to plastic harvest bins. Built with FDA-approved polypropylene and designed for maximum strength.
When it comes to handling long, oversized, or uniquely shaped materials, standard bulk containers often fail to meet these requirements. That’s where DuraGreen® extended-length collapsible bulk containers step in, offering durability, flexibility, and efficiency for demanding applications.
Pallet bins and plastic pallet boxes, or pallet packs, are modular containers designed for the storage, transportation, and handling of goods. These systems consist of a plastic pallet base, a corrugated cardboard or plastic sleeve, and a lid.
Our agricultural bulk containers are designed to handle a wide range of products, including fresh produce, root vegetables, grains, nuts, and other field commodities. Made from durable, FDA-approved plastic, these containers are ideal for both field use and storage in facilities. They won’t splinter, rot, or absorb moisture like wooden crates, making them a more hygienic and long-lasting solution for farmers and growers.
At RPP Containers, we understand that no two businesses are alike. Whether you're in manufacturing, distribution, or logistics, your material handling needs are unique. That's why we specialize in custom bulk containers designed to meet your specific requirements, optimize efficiency, and enhance your supply chain. In this blog, we'll explore the benefits of custom bulk containers and how RPP Containers can help you find the perfect solution.
In today’s fast-paced industrial landscape, efficient material handling is critical for optimizing operations, reducing costs, and maintaining a competitive edge. At RPP Containers®, we understand the pivotal role that industrial bulk containers play in streamlining supply chains, enhancing storage solutions, and supporting sustainable practices. Our high-quality bulk containers are designed to meet the diverse needs of various industries, including manufacturing, automotive, food processing, and pharmaceuticals.
Reliable and sustainable bulk storage solutions are critical to operational success in today's fast-paced industrial and commercial environments.
