W84: Americhem has identified a non-zinc based pigment which can be used in place of a zinc based pigment. The pigment is more heat stable and should produce a better quality product, which will require less re-processing. This will not only safe on energy consumption, but should also reduce zinc metal compounds to the environment (land, water, air). Source Reduction - Americhem's Research & Development Group continually searches for safe alternative chemical replacements for our products working closely with our customers. |

Source Reduction: Source Reduction - Americhem has identified a non-zinc based pigment, which can be used in place of a zinc based pigment. The new pigment is more heat stable and should produce a better quality product. This will not only save on energy consumption, but should reduce the potential of zinc releases to the environment. Other Environmental Practices: General Environmental Management - The Americhem, Inc. SCP facility is an ISO 14001 certified. As part of the program, Americhem continuously seeks way to lesson our environmental impact through waste reduction activities, substitution with safer materials, and increasing the amount of waste material sent to recycling and reuse programs. |

W42: Zinc containing materials are being substituted with suitable alternatives that do not contain regulated metals. Source Reduction: Source Reduction - Americhem has identified a non-zinc based pigment which can be used in place of a zinc based pigment. The new pigment should produce a better quality product which will require less-reprocessing. This will not only save on energy consumption but should also reduce the potential for release of zinc metal compounds to the environment (land, water, air). Other Environmental Practices: General Environmental Management - This Americhem, Inc. facility is ISO 14001 certified. As part of this program, Amierchem continuously seeks ways to lessen our environmental impact through waste reduction activities, substitution with safer materials, and increasing the amount of waste material sent to recycling and reuse programs. |
