PADNOS is a full-service recycling company handling paper, plastics, metals and more. We tailor recycling programs for industrial and commercial clients throughout the United States.
The Founding of PADNOS
As a teenager, Louis Padnos traveled from Russia to the Netherlands and finally arrived in the United States at the beginning of the 1900s. He spent a few years peddling clothing, tools and utensils in Michigan and Wisconsin. He began visiting local sawmills, creameries and farms, trading his goods for old iron that he shipped to Chicago.
Louis settled in Holland, Michigan in 1905. In 1917 Louis Padnos, not yet a citizen, was drafted into the United States Army and served during World War I. When he returned, he married Helen Kantor and they had two sons, Seymour and Stuart who eventually took over the business. In 1920 Louis bought an existing scrap yard on East Eighth Street in Holland.
Helen was an equal partner in this new venture. When Louis fell ill, she ran the business and the family affairs single-handedly for almost a year. In 1932 Helen and Louis expanded the business by purchasing real estate from the bankrupt Ottawa Furniture Company on River Avenue.
PADNOS continues to be a family business with four generations working to innovate the recycling industry. PADNOS has grown to 20 locations, employs over 500 people, and has been recycling for over a century.
