our mission

Life is not what you do today, but what you leave behind.

Relan's mission is to build a company that is focused on the education and communication of environmental and sustainable practices as it pertains to the repurposing of the over 600,000 tons of vinyl billboards and banner material produced each year. The majority of this material ends up in landfills across the country. Relan gives new life to these materials. We repurpose vinyl into usable products while helping companies communicate their sustainability mission to the world and building a revenue steam that supports the U.S. economy.

Relan – we're cool, green, fun.. and sustainable!

our methods

where we work

Our dedicated building in Inver Grove Heights, MN houses our design and prototype studio as well as our showroom. Over 11,000 square feet of warehouse space allow us to manage receiving, cleaning, and cutting all in the same location.

how we prepare

All billboards are cleaned front and back prior to production. Depending on the project and volume, cutting might be done by hand or by using a digital die-cutter. Sewing duties are handled both in-house and through tested, locally-sourced associates.

how we deliver

Our design team works with clients on a case-by-case basis to determine the best use of their vinyl. From specialty cutting and components to one-of-a-kind solutions - Relan helps realize the perfect sustainabiltiy message.
