CATALOG SUSTAINABILITY MADE EASY
ABOUT US ABOUT It all started with an idea. Let’s make disposable products that are safer for the environment and the people who use them. Simple, right? No, it was incredibly difficult and took years of research and investment, but we did it, and we changed the world of disposable products forever. Emerald™ was founded by Ralph Bianculli in 1997, and has since become the go-to company for full-circle corporate sustainability solutions. Using the latest technology, proprietary measurement algorithms, and educational courses, Emerald™ is uniquely bringing sustainability to businesses and homes around the world.
MISSION Emerald’s™ mission has always been to combat climate change by providing products and solutions that help mainstream sustainability in the everyday disposables category. But the reality is, our mission goes well beyond just disposables. In 2018 we decided to reestablish our company mission to encompass what we really do at Emerald™: Protect life. Every tree we save, every microplastic removed from the ocean, and through every person who gains knowledge about sustainability our mission is accomplished.

All environmental savings estimates are based on conversion from products of the same weight made entirely of virgin wood fiber and/or petroleum-based plastic resin. Landfill waste estimates of products containing recycled content account for materials removed from the waste stream before production. Water, GHG, and energy savings of products containing Tree-Free and plastic-free materials are calculated at the raw material level of production and are not a complete Life Cycle Assessment. Landfill waste diverted at the end user level is based on proper disposal of recyclable, compostable, and biodegradable products. We are continuously researching new methods for updating our Environmental Impact Calculator. Any discrepancies between this analysis and past or future analyses can be attributed to our use of the most recent data available to us at the time.
