Go Green Industries

What Go Green Industries does

Go Green Industries, Inc. is a privately held plastics recycler founded in 2008 and headquartered in Riverside, California. The company produces post-consumer recycled (PCR) and post-industrial recycled (PIR) resins across seven polymer families — HDPE, Polypropylene, ABS, HIPS, PVC, PET, and LLDPE — serving plastic manufacturers using injection, extrusion, rotational, and thermal-grade molding processes. Customer-segment disclosure indicates a primary focus on rotational molders and consumer-goods packaging manufacturers, with the company explicitly positioned as a domestic alternative to imported Chinese resins following tariff increases.

The technical backbone is a 15-acre vertically integrated site that spans feedstock recovery through finished product, including materials recovery, toll grinding and shredding, extrusion, pulverization, custom compounding (mineral fillers, talc, custom colorization), and in-house polymeric testing. The 2018 commissioning of a new 8-inch extrusion line added more than 30 million lbs of annual PCR/PIR capacity, with management claiming total capacity tripled in under a year; a new pulverizer doubled pulverization throughput, positioning the firm as one of a limited set of SoCal providers offering this service at scale.

Go Green operates a sales-led, direct-engagement GTM model with a three-step process (contact, solution crafting, implementation). Revenue is generated across four streams: sale of PCR resins, fee-based recycling services (grinding, shredding, extrusion, pulverization), custom compounding, and bulk transportation/logistics. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, with the value proposition anchored on cost reduction versus virgin plastics, supply reliability, and sustainability/waste-diversion benefits. Distribution combines a proprietary bulk truck delivery fleet with a national carrier network for outbound resin shipments, and the company distributes via direct sales from its Riverside facility alongside digital channels (website, blog, Facebook, Instagram) for top-of-funnel awareness.

• KW Plastics: One of the largest North American producers of PCR HDPE and PP resins from post-consumer bottle bales. Directly comparable to Go Green's core HDPE/PP PCR business and a likely national competitor on the customer accounts cited in Go Green's materials.
• MBA Polymers: Recycled plastics resin producer recovering engineering plastics (ABS, PC/ABS) and polyolefins from end-of-life vehicles and WEEE. Direct peer in the PCR/PIR compounding space; competing for the same recycled resin procurement customers.
• Envision Plastics: Specialty recycler producing PCR HDPE and PP for personal care, automotive, and packaging markets. Direct peer in food- and non-food-grade recycled HDPE/PP with overlapping end-customers.
• Wellmark Industries: Custom compounder and recycler producing PCR compounds and color masterbatch. Direct peer in custom compounding and pigment/coloring services that Go Green emphasizes.
• Custom Resins Inc. Mid-size custom compounder of virgin and recycled resins for injection and extrusion converters. Direct overlap with Go Green's compounding and niche-grade resin business.
• CarbonLite Operations: PCR PET and HDPE producer serving beverage and food-grade packaging customers. Direct peer in food-contact-grade recycled resin end-markets adjacent to Go Green's packaging customer base.
• Avangard Innovative: Provider of recycled-resin solutions, including pelletizing, grinding, and compounding for PCR/PIR plastics. Direct peer in toll processing and compounding services.
• Plastic Recycling Inc. Mid-size regional recycler of industrial and post-consumer scrap plastics, providing grinding, washing, and compounding services to converters. Direct peer at the same scale and service-bundle as Go Green.

Emerging players

• PureCycle Technologies: Public advanced/chemical recycler focused on dissolving PP contamination to produce virgin-grade recycled PP. Emerging competitor addressing the same rotational-molding and packaging end-uses with a technology-driven value proposition.
