Brightmark began with the pursuit to do good for the planet.
We created waste solutions that contributes to lowering greenhouse emissions and a solution that will have the potential to contribute to end the proliferation of plastics that are strewn across every corner of the globe.
From the moment of Brightmark’s inception five years ago, our team has worked tirelessly to evolve and fine-tune our approach to these pressing issues.
This is a crucial moment for our planet. We as a company are here to create positive change and be a catalyst for good. We aim to be a beacon of hope and inspire companies and individuals alike to take action.
