Helping Create a More Sustainable Future

Once limited to protection of natural resources, the term “sustainability” has evolved to include many issues like treatment and development of people, community outreach, legal compliance, environmental stewardship and the advancement of expanding social issues. Using “innovation with speed and discipline,” American Vanguard helps build a more sustainable future by providing growers, farmers, golf course superintendents, pest management professionals and lawn care operators across the globe with a growing portfolio of over 20 customer-focused solutions through 2023. Each product is developed to minimize the impact on our environment while maximizing results.

But our dedication to sustainability runs deeper than products.

By safely and responsibly managing the accountability of operations and partnerships, such as our Technology Innovation Center in Los Angeles, CA, Life Development Center in Costa Rica and Envance Technologies® in Research Triangle Park, NC, we can ensure the next generation of technology solutions exceed the high standards you have come to expect and trust from American Vanguard.

We recognize the importance of our role and effect on the planet — from local communities to the global environment — and are committed managing our footprint created by our global manufacturing operations and maintaining our technological partnerships to provide customers the tools and equipment needed to increase their efficiency and help them do more with less impact on the environment.
