Red Fish Recycling

RedFish Recycling came to Brownsville, TX in the Summer of 2013. As a subsidiary of Marck Industries Inc., headquartered in Cassville, MO, RedFish is Marck’s 7th active location of recycling and waste disposal services in the United States.

With ties to Marck Industries, RedFish Recycling has 20 years of recycling and waste management experience and expertise. From reducing waste costs, to reducing landfill contributions, to meeting industry compliances, to reducing our impact on the planet and its resources, RedFish will guide you to a cleaner and brighter future.

Dean Putegnat, founder of RedFish, and his family have a long history in the Brownsville community. Members of the Putegnat family started Model Laundry and Dry Cleaning in the 1890s, which has grown to a uniform company serving Texas and Colorado, and started Annie S. Putegnat Elementary School in 1915, the first elementary school in Brownsville Independent School District. Dean, along with his father Barry Putegnat, started Rancho Caracol, a wingshooting lodge for sportsman and travelers alike.
