We’re on a mission to help divert 3 million tonnes of waste from landfills by 2030. That’s the weight of about 456,128 school buses! Diverting waste from landfills can lead to many environmental benefits, for example: more available land for things like farming, a reduction of methane gas production, and the conservation of non-renewable resources through recycling programs. We are leaders in compostable innovation, making composting accessible and easy for Canadians – because the more food that we compost, the less waste that ends up in landfills. We also manufacture with sustainability top of mind, right here in Canada.

GLAD® products have been proudly made in Canada since 1967. Our plant in Orangeville, ON is also a certified Zero Waste to Landfill site, to keep the that produces over 40 quality products for Canadian households. Canadians are becoming more conscious of the impact of their choices on the environment & GLAD® is on a mission to help Canadians waste better and waste less.

GLAD® is committed to benefitting Canadian communities in tangible ways. We put our Strength in Action by organizing local community cleanups, and we work directly with municipalities across Canada to actively support change.

Our most recent partnerships with the cities of Peterborough, Brantford, and London ON on their new green bin programs will help divert food waste from landfill, a critical step toward reducing methane gas emissions. One of the biggest barriers to program success is early adoption and resident participation, so we provide free GLAD® samples and coupons for bags to help community members participate in and adapt to new diversion programs.
