The Bag Connection, Inc., & Bagit System® Products
Company Profile
The Bag Connection,
Inc. is the largest supplier of recycled flexible intermediate bulk
containers in North America. The
bulk bag division recycles guaranteed sling bulk bags for a wide range of
commercial accounts, including many of the best known names in industry.
As market leader, The Bag Connection has developed broad expertise in all
aspects of bag manufacturing, refurbishing, and marketing, as well as the
specialized requirements of the various applications in which bulk
containers are used.
The
firm also designs, distributes, and markets the Bagit System® family of
products, which initially was a safe, convenient, and highly
cost-effective system for recycling office paper. Key to the success of
the Bagit System—used in more than one million recycling stations—is
its reuseable bag which minimizes sorting and storage problems. The Bagit
System is marketed to large institutional-type recyclers, such as
universities, the military, government, large campuses of wide
description, commercial property managers, and waste and recycling
management firms. Because of this diverse distribution, Bagit System
products are found nationwide in facilities from the largest to smallest.
Initially
the Bagit System consisted only of a patented rack-and-reuseable bag
system designed to promote and facilitate office paper recycling. The
product line has since grown to include reuseable bags intended for
recycling in multi-family, desk-side, custodial, gardening and landscape,
and public-space, as well as commercial environments.
In
1987, The Bag Connection was the recipient of Oregon’s Recycler of the
Year Award.
The
company estimates that its bulk bag division alone annually diverts more
than 100 tons of non-bio-degradable plastics from landfills in the U.S.
Untold millions of pounds of paper, plastic, and glass consumables are
recycled through the Bagit System each year.
The
Bag Connection credits its success to its commitment to customer service
and exceptional product quality.
The
Bag Connection began operations in Dundee, Oregon in 1983. It has
dramatically expanded its facilities in Oregon and now also has regional
operations in Maine and Mississippi.
