At Dundee Manufacturing, sustainability isn’t just a trend — it’s a responsibility. As a precision metal stamping manufacturer with over 20 years of experience serving the plumbing and HVAC industries, we know that every material counts.
That’s why recycling and waste reduction are built into every step of our process.
Our mission is simple: make the most of every resource, minimize our environmental footprint, and create lasting value for our customers and our planet.

Maximizing Every Piece of Metal
Metal is the backbone of what we do, and we believe in using it wisely. In our facilities, we:
Collect and recycle all scrap metal generated from stamping and fabrication.
Partner with certified recyclers to ensure materials are responsibly processed and reintroduced into the supply chain.
Optimize our manufacturing techniques to reduce material waste and improve efficiency at every stage.
These practices not only reduce landfill impact but also keep costs competitive. This helps us deliver high-quality, American-made products at factory-direct pricing.
Building a Culture of Sustainability
Recycling isn’t just a task — it’s a mindset. Across Dundee, we’ve integrated sustainability into our culture by:
Using energy-efficient systems, including LED lighting and smart machine scheduling, to reduce power consumption.
Going paperless whenever possible, reducing waste and streamlining communication.
Training our team to think sustainably in their day-to-day roles, reinforcing “reduce, reuse, recycle” as standard practice.
The Importance of Sustainable Practices
As manufacturing continues to evolve, sustainability is no longer optional — it’s essential. By making recycling and efficiency priorities, Dundee Manufacturing shows that responsible practices can go hand-in-hand with competitive pricing and quality.
For our customers, that means:
Partnering with a supplier that shares their values.
Confidence in products made with care for the environment.
A reliable source for parts, without hidden costs or wasteful practices.
Turning Waste Into Opportunity
Every pound of metal we recycle is a step toward a cleaner, stronger future. At Dundee, we’re proud to lead by example, proving that sustainable manufacturing benefits everyone — our planet, our customers, and our industry.
Innovative Approaches to Sustainability
We are constantly seeking new ways to enhance our sustainability efforts. This includes:
Investing in new technologies that improve energy efficiency and reduce waste.
Exploring alternative materials that are more sustainable and can be integrated into our processes.
Engaging with our community to promote awareness about the importance of recycling and sustainable manufacturing.
