History

MarBorg Industries is a local, family-owned business which has been serving Santa Barbara County for over 75 years. The business was started by Mario Borgatello Sr. and Charlie Borgatello in the late 1920’s. Recycling has been at the heart of MarBorg since the beginning when Mario and Charlie Borgatello would supply used metal, cotton, nylon, glass and other materials to meet the demand for low-cost goods created by the 1930’s depression and the 1940’s war mobilization. They would sort through the trash they collected to recover any item that could be reused. These resourceful practices became the foundation for today’s recycling efforts at MarBorg Industries.

In its 3rd generation, MarBorg is still operated as a local family business. Under the leadership of Brian Borgatello as President, along with Anthony Borgatello, Kathy Koeper, and Derek Carlson, the Borgatello Family continues to carry fourth the legacy that was set by their grandfather and fathers. At MarBorg Industries, service is a family tradition and remains our number one priority.
