Other Environmental Practices: Recycling - VinylOne provides a recycling service. Some of our materials they can process and return the polymer (PVC) sheet back to us in a pulverized form to be reused as a raw material or they will sell the material to other customers who can use this polymer. |

Barriers: B8-Barriers to P2 B8 - A reduction does not appear to be technically feasible
Barriers: B3-Barriers to P2 B3 - Concern that product quality may decline as a result of source reduction. |
Barriers to P2: B8 - A reduction does not appear to be technically feasible - Antimony is a key ingredient to ensure our product meets required levels of heat release and smoke density for the industryapplication. Other raw materials have been tested in the past without success. Barriers to P2: B3 - Concern that product quality may decline as a result of source reduction. - Antimony is a key ingredient to ensure our product meets required levels of heat release and smoke density for the industryapplication. Other raw materials have been tested in the past without success. Other Environmental Practices: Recycling - Blue Ocean both provides a recycling service for some of our material processing and returning the polymer (PVC) sheet back to us in a pulverized form to be reused as a raw material or they will sell the material to other customers who can use this polymer. |

Source Reduction:: W14: Changed production schedule to minimize equipment and feedstock changeovers
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T04: Participative team management
|
Source Reduction: Source Reduction - We have removed Antimony Trioxide from several products over the past year in an effort to reduce cost and decrease the amount of 313 chemical in our plant and waste streams. |

Source Reduction:: W14: Changed production schedule to minimize equipment and feedstock changeovers
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T04: Participative team management
|
W14: This helped reduce the scrap rate of our PVC plastic sheet which also reduces the Antimony that is used and recycled Source Reduction - Production team works to review the schedule to improve efficiency on changeovers and down time to reduce the scrap generated in the production process. |
2010 | Other Environmental Practices - We use Antimony Trioxide in our PVC compound. Once the PVC is produced the Antimony is bound in the polymer. All PVC waste generated is sent to a plastics recycling company, New Wave Plastics. The PVC is then recycled and returned Boltaron or another manufacture of PVC for reuse. | ||
2009 | Other Environmental Practices - Animony Oxide is added to PVC at our facility. Almost all PVC that does not go into our product, gets recycled on site and put back into products or it is recycled off-site by a PVC reprocessor. Although it is recycled, it is being recycled due to PVC, the Antimony Oxide just happens to be a component not the main reason for the recycling. | ||
