“Our new brand, Arcwood Environmental, reflects our commitment to growth, innovation, and creating lasting value for our customers, propelling our industry towards a cleaner, brighter future,” said HP Nanda, Chief Executive Officer of Arcwood Environmental. “Our improvements, enhancements, and investments are driven by our customers’ needs.”  

Backed by a growing team of 2,000+ across the nation, Arcwood Environmental’s partnerships span critical sectors like pharmaceuticals, life sciences, advanced manufacturing, chemicals, Oil and Gas, Metals and many other industries where reliable waste management is essential to supporting growth and innovation. By offering practical solutions that work in real-world conditions, Arcwood Environmental empowers businesses to focus on what they do best, knowing that their environmental responsibilities are in capable hands. 

Arcwood Environmental is offering innovative solutions for a safer, healthier world. “In every industry, waste is a natural byproduct of progress,” said Ernie Walker, President of Arcwood Environmental. “The question isn’t whether waste exists—it always will—but how we choose to manage it. At Arcwood Environmental, we lead by example, demonstrating that responsible waste management is good for the planet and good for business.” 

“As Arcwood, we’re growing and evolving,” said Chris Ebling, Chief Commercial Officer. “By optimizing our sales approach, expanding into high-growth industries, and deepening existing customer relationships, we are creating new opportunities for our team and delivering greater value to our partners.”  

Arcwood Environmental’s transformation includes expanded service capabilities, highlighted by the ramp-up of its Orange, Texas incinerator. This ramp-up enhances the company’s ability to process hazardous materials safely and efficiently. Additionally, Arcwood has strengthened its capabilities with the integration of its Joplin, Missouri facility, which specializes in demilitarization and energetic waste (e.g., explosives) disposal. These advancements, along with improvements in processing and increased safety measures at other facilities, are helping customers navigate the complexities of industrial waste management with confidence.  

“Our name may have changed, but our mission has not,” said Nanda. “Arcwood Environmental is scaling up, innovating, and leading the way in sustainable industrial waste management. Together, we’re clearing the path for a cleaner, safer future.”
