The Story

Michael Patrick Harding built an IBC empire. Sold it. Then his customers pulled him back in.

After selling Clawson Container and IBC North America, former customers didn't want corporate. They wanted MPH. So in 2021, MPH United was born with a different model: alliances and equity partnerships that unite regional manufacturers and recyclers with the companies that need them.

Twenty facilities later, the operation needs more than spreadsheets and phone calls. MPHOS gives David Harding a single view across every facility, every customer, and every container in the lifecycle.
