Every green choice we make has a ripple effect

With a name like Ice River Sustainable Solutions, it shouldn’t come as a surprise that we’re big believers in environmental corporate responsibility. Having overcome many challenges in pursuit of more eco-friendly operations, our company has become a forward-thinking leader in the industry, focused on educating consumers, manufacturers and government organizations. As more and more businesses get on board, we continue to grow our efforts. Our hope is that other manufacturers will all put the same emphasis on sustainability.

The possibilities of eco-friendly design are endless.

By operating our own recycling facility in a closed loop (from curbside collection to bottling natural spring water responsibly and recycling plastic packaging again and again), we eliminate the need to purchase new virgin PET. Manufacturing our bottles from 100% post-consumer recycled content is how we built a well-established circular economy for PET plastic in Ontario.

Ice River products and packagiNG are designed for a circular economy.
