Welcome to MacGyver Industries, where our mission is to drive sustainable, healthy practices through innovation, education, and collaboration. We hope to inspire individuals, companies, and communities to adopt sustainable habits that will benefit society and the environment.
What Does it Mean to Be a MacGyver?
The term “MacGyver” originated from the popular TV show that began in 1985. This definition, provided by the Oxford English Dictionary, reflects our core philosophy:
Mac·Gy·ver – /məˈɡīvər/ – verb To make or repair (an object) in an inventive way, using whatever resources are at hand. “He MacGyvered a makeshift jack with a log.”
At MacGyver Industries, we apply this principle to create innovative, sustainable solutions for personal and professional development. Learning how to improvise and adapt to situations can take time, and we are happy to brainstorm, collaborate, and provide guidance to help others improve their processes.

The items you no longer need may be able to be repaired or find new purpose with someone else, helping to build a more sustainable future.
