BUILT FOR THE LANDSCAPE
NOT THE LANDFILL PLASTIC BOTTLES RECYCLED AS LANDSCAPE MATERIALS
M
ore than 1 billion old plastic water bottles are transforming outdoor spaces across the nation through a premier brand of lawn and garden products. Master Mark uses recycled plastics to create clean, crisp edges to lawns, gardens, flower beds and walkways. The durable, affordable, and sustainable outdoor materials include decking, grid accent lattice, and interlocking tile. The idea for Master Mark began more than 50 years ago. Don and Eva Reum launched the group in Avon, Minnesota, in 1966, using the name Avon Plastics, then eventually grew to a larger manufacturing facility in the 1970s and 80s. Now the company ships worldwide under several brands, including Master Mark and Master Gardener. As they expanded, the team sought more reliable material sources. This lead them to a partnership with the Minnesotta Pollution Control Agency in 1984, and they launched the first recycling facility of its kind in North America.
