From the Farm to Your Fridge: Sustainability at United Dairy

At United Dairy, goodness starts from the inside with our high-quality products that have been a family tradition for over sixty years. We care deeply about preserving resources for future generations, that is why we introduced our new packaging, the EcoJug, which is greatly minimizing our impact on the environment.

We work hard to reduce waste, reuse resources, and recycle what we can so that those same future generations will be able to enjoy the same high-quality milk you enjoy today.

  1. Reducing energy consumption with energy-efficient light bulbs, motors, fans, pumps, and compressors.
