Our commitment to sustainability

If we want to cultivate the future of horticulture, we need to take sustainability seriously. In addition to providing our customers with sustainable solutions, we are also taking action to improve sustainability at A.M.A. and within the industry.

We embrace sustainability from environmental, social and economic standpoints. We are always making adjustments to our products, practices and our role in the community to ensure we are doing our part to create a more sustainable future.

We’re committed to recycling. Our team recycles all paper and most plastic products that we use. We also support our customers through our plastics recycling program. We pick up used trays and have them recycled for you with no hassle. Learn more about our recycling program and ask you’re A.M.A. rep about getting involved.
We’re conscious about plastic consumption. One of our largest suppliers uses 80% post-industrial recycled/reprocessed polystyrene plastic to make trays. Most of our plastic product suppliers use recycled material. And we offer an increasing collection of degradable, compostable and fibre products.
We’re helping you become more sustainable. We offer a large range of sustainable products including: degradable twine, clips and other hydroponic supplies; all natural and organic soil and growing media alternatives; Ellepots by A.M.A. are soil plugs wrapped in degradable paper which eliminate the need for plastic pots and they can be manufactured with organic certified soil; containers made from recycled and renewable resources; and more! Discover our sustainable solutions.
We don’t just talk the talk. We are constantly improving the environmental performance of our buildings and operations through initiatives such as installing energy efficient lighting, procuring sustainable office products like Ocean Wise paper, optimizing our heating and cooling systems to minimize energy consumption, and installing an Urbanscape Green Roof System, just to name a few!
We play our part in conservation. A.M.A. has worked with staff at Point Pelee National Park and students from local high school horticulture programs to re-establish the park’s natural savannah. The savannah covers 2% of the park, yet shelters one quarter of its species at risk including the Five-lined Skink, the Eastern Prickly Pear Cactus, and the Common Hoptree. We’ve also worked with Niagara College horticultural students who are helping to increase the oak tree population in Ontario’s Niagara region Chautauqua community.
