In August of 2020, in the midst of a global pandemic, I bought the assets of Residue Recycling from my partner, Mark Cope.  It was a decision that wasn’t made lightly, and was done in such a way that both he and I were able to walk away from the table totally satisfied.  Mark built up Residue Recycling from the early ’90’s and laid a foundation for things to come.   When I joined him in 2010, we started a journey that has led us to being one of the best recyclers in the Southeastern United States. By using our equipment, our market and material knowledge, we aim to be the best provider of plastic recycling services to corporations and businesses needing some outside help.

One of Mark’s mottos was “Luck is where opportunity and preparation meet.”  Over the years we have grown into a manufacturing organization that is prepared to process and find answers for our customers.  Our core competency is very simple:  We are part of the solution.  Whether it be our technical understanding of processes and products or our commitment to the most reliable service to our customers, Residue Recycling has and will continue to strive for perfection as a toll manufacturing provider.   POLYMER SUSTAINABILITY is our motto.  Serving our customers  is our obligation and duty.
