About Solberg Manufacturing

Solberg manufactures standard and custom filtration, separation, & silencing products that protect machinery, the surrounding environment, and the workplace. Their worldwide company embraces growth and innovation while advocating and promoting sustainable responsibility.

We became a B Corp to help lead our economy to a better place. We felt like it was our responsibility to be an initiator in a standard this important and help build the sustainable economy.

The Change We Seek™

Solberg has taken the Triple Bottom Line philosophy and augmented it with their own “P7 Tree” Initiative: people, planet, power, product, philanthropy, protect, and profit. It is safe to say all of the actions which Solberg does, will fall into one of these categories. The benefit of expanding people, planet and profit to seven is that there are more topics for which to relate to helping others grasp their sustainable passion.

They are proud partners with DOE Save Energy Now LEADERS, which is a voluntary goal to reduce their energy intensity by 25% over ten years. Their baseline year is 2008. This strategy is very helpful because they are proactively investigating ways to reduce their environmental footprint fundamentally helping labor efficiency, health and safety.

All of this internally helps them accomplish and build on their mission: “We partner with customers, colleagues, and suppliers to help them innovate and discover new possibilities.” Without a strong foundation and the integration of this philosophy throughout their company, their relationships and high quality products would not mean as much.
