2022 |
Source Reduction:: S06: Other material modifications made[-50-99%]
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T06: Employee recommendation (under a formal company program)
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T11: Other Barriers: B7-Barriers to P2 B7 - No known substitutes or alternative technologies. |
S06: Xylene nor longer used as a cleaner for painting equipment. Barriers to P2: B7 - No known substitutes or alternative technologies. - HIgh temperature paints required for interior of fireplaces are limited because of the high heat. |
2021 |
Source Reduction:: S02: Substituted an organic solvent[-15-24%]
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T04: Participative team management
|
S02: We moved to Methyl Amyl Ketone to replace Xylene for cleaning our paint equipment as well as to a paint that uses it as an ingredient. |
2020 |
Source Reduction:: W58: Other process modifications[-0-4%]
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T10: Vendor assistance
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T11: Other Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T05: Employee recommendation (independent of a formal company program) Barriers: B3-Barriers to P2 B3 - Concern that product quality may decline as a result of source reduction. |
W58: Testing non HAPS Solvent to replace Xylene in the cleaning processes involved in our painting processes. Barriers to P2: B3 - Concern that product quality may decline as a result of source reduction. - We have discussed switching to Powder Coating on all surfaces, but have not been able to find a powder coating that can handle the heat of a fireplaces as of yet. |
2018 |
Source Reduction:: W72: Modified spray systems or equipment[-25-49%]
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T04: Participative team management
|
W72: Additional Robotic painting was installed. Source Reduction - We made a company wide effort to improve our painting process so that there was less waste and errors. This reduced the need to do touch up work with aerosols and reduced the amount of paint sprayed. All of which led to a reduction in our emissions. |
