Environmental Sustainability
Sustainability isn’t a separate program at Filly. It’s the way the shop runs day to day. The materials we source, how we handle scrap, the lighting in the warehouse — every piece of it ties back to using less and wasting less.
Some of our prime contractor customers ask about sustainability before they ask about anything else. This page covers what we do.

Responsible Material Sourcing
Every fabricator we use is ISO certified. We hold our suppliers to the same standards our customers hold us to. When materials come in, we know where they came from and how they were made.
Reuse Before Recycle
When a project wraps and we have extra components, we don’t scrap them. We disassemble what we can, return the parts to inventory, and use them on the next build that fits. That keeps usable parts out of the landfill and keeps customer costs down.
Scrap Revenue Goes Back Into the Building
Scrap material gets recycled. The revenue from it goes back into facility improvements — better lighting, better equipment, better workspaces. Customers benefit twice: lower waste and a more efficient shop floor.
Packaging Gets a Second Life
Boxes and packing materials that come in with customer shipments don’t get thrown away. They get reused for outbound shipping and internal packing. Less new packaging, less waste.
Energy-Efficient Lighting
The warehouse and assembly areas run on energy-efficient lighting throughout. Lower energy draw, better working conditions on the floor.
Cleaning Vendors That Match Our Standards
The companies we hire for facility cleaning use environmentally friendly products. We don’t bring chemicals into the building that we wouldn’t want our team working around.
