Our Journey in Sustainability

We are always looking to set the bar higher in order to reach and surpass our objectives. We look forward to sharing our sustainability journey with you!

Our Environmental Initiatives
Plastic Bank empowers the Social Recycling movement that stops ocean plastic and helps alleviate poverty. Busch Systems is improving lives in ethical collection communities in collaboration with Plastic Bank and, in 2023, Busch Systems will help stop the equivalent of 2.2 million plastic bottles from entering the ocean in collaboration with Plastic Bank.
Innovation is at the heart of what we do, and we are proud to have partnered with CarbonGraph to map out the carbon footprint of our products. Founded in 2021, CarbonGraph’s mission is to provide people, companies and governments the environmental context needed to make informed decisions about the sustainability of the goods and services they buy.
Busch Systems is your direct source for innovative & eco-friendly recycling & waste containers. Like us, our customers care about their social & environmental impact. Maintaining our B-Corp certification is one of the ways we demonstrate our active commitment to reducing waste, building community, and doing what we can to leave the world better than we found it.
Busch Systems recognized that the only way we can be successful is to ensure our customer’s diversion efforts are successful. That’s the spirit behind the Green Thinking webinar series, which regularly hosts free programs featuring case study presentations and industry experts to disseminate best practice knowledge to local sustainability and facility managers.

SUPPORTING OUR PASSION FOR THE ENVIRONMENT
Meet Our Junior Ambassador!
Ryan Hickman of
In 2012 at the age of 3, Ryan went along with his dad to the local recycling center and cashed in a few small bags of cans and bottles and decided that recycling was in his future. The next day, Ryan told his mom and dad that he wanted to give empty plastic bags to all the neighbors and maybe they would save their recyclables for him. Not only did the local neighbors save their cans and bottles for Ryan, but so did their friends, families and co-workers!
In 2016, Ryan’s recycling story went viral and ever since he has been featured on websites, television and radio stations around the World. Busch Systems is proud to support Ryan in his recycling journey along with his passion for sharing his knowledge with kids and adults alike with his nonprofit Project3R.
