Corporate Sustainability
Neta Scientific, Inc. is committed to meeting the highest standards of ethics and professionalism in every interaction with our staff, customers, suppliers, and partners.
As a long-term goal of contributing to more sustainable solutions, we apply the three pillars of sustainability: economic, social, and environmental. These pillars are represented through our core values, supplier partnerships, sustainability practices, sourcing and distributing products that exceed our customers’ expectations, and participating in programs with local and global impact.

Neta Focus on Our Practices
At Neta Scientific, we encourage sustainability as a holistic practice in business and at home while continually promoting our efforts and evolving to support our customers as needs and goals shift.
- Recycle Program – In 2016, we implemented our Warehouse Corrugated Recycle Program to maximize recycled content by reusing corrugated boxes, when suitable, for product shipments.
- If not suitable, using an industrial cardboard shredder in our warehouse, we turn corrugated boxes and containers into cushioned packaging inserts for use in product shipments.
- Energy Savings – Converted all lighting in our office and warehouse locations to LED lighting.
- Reduction of printed literature and increasing the use of electronic flyers, catalogs, and brochures.
- Bulk Packaging – When consolidating orders, we ship in-stock items from our warehouse locations in bulk packaging, including pallet sizes.
