A Family-Owned Business Rooted in Cleveland
At Green Paper Products, we’ve always believed that sustainability starts at home. We’re a small, family-owned business that has called Cleveland home since day one. From the beginning, our mission has been simple: to provide eco-friendly, compostable alternatives to single-use plastics. We love this city and the people in it, and we’re always looking for ways to support local businesses, families, and sustainability efforts.
That’s why our partnership with Rust Belt Riders, Northeast Ohio’s go-to composting solution, just makes sense. Like us, they’re passionate about reducing waste and creating a more sustainable future for Cleveland. Whether you’re a business, a household, or part of a community initiative, Rust Belt Riders is making it easier than ever to compost—and we’re proud to be part of that movement.
The Power of Composting with Rust Belt Riders
Rust Belt Riders is a commercial composting company that operates business pickups and community drop-off locations across Cuyahoga County. Their mission is simple: keep food waste out of landfills and turn it into nutrient-rich compost that benefits our environment, hence their motto - Feed People, Not Landfills.
Why composting matters: Food waste that ends up in landfills generates methane, a powerful greenhouse gas. Composting helps reduce these emissions while creating healthy soil for farms and gardens.
How Green Paper Products fits in: Many of our products are Rust Belt Riders-approved, meaning they are certified compostable and can be processed through their system. By choosing compostable products, you’re actively helping to create a circular economy right here in Cleveland.
