Source Reduction - Our program to reduce pollution is the Dap Tipp City's Facility's First Time Right Program. This program endeavors to use the talents of our batch compounders and chemical formulators to develop new, more appropriate recipes for batches in an effort to successfully complete the batch without further processing. Increasing the first time right percentage reduces waste, energy use, and reduces the use of other resources. Over the last 4 years the Dap Tip City facility has increased the number of batches that have been successfully completed as first time right (FTR) . These percentages are: CY09 76.67% CY10 80.71% CY11 82.02% CY12 86.55% As you can see, we have raised the average number of FTR batches by 10%. In CY12, we made many more batches than in CY09, and yet, we are able to increase the FTR percentage. |

Source Reduction - Source Reduction, Recycling, or Pollution Control Activities at DAP Inc. Tipp City "First Pass Right" Quality Initiative. As one might expect, the downturn in economy has not been kind to the DAP Tipp City Facility. The DAP Tipp City Facility has been exploring methods for pollution reduction in its operations. One of our success stories is the facility's "First Pass Right" Program. This is a program where the facility endeavors to make batches correctly the first time. If we make batches correctly the first time, then the facility optimizes the use of A. Raw materials (air, solid waste and hazardous waste pollution is minimized if the batch is correct on the first trial). B. Energy (used to drive the facilities equipment and processes is minimized if the batch is correct on the first trial). Due to the hard work of our associates, the DAP Tipp City Facility was able to raise its first time right percentage from 76.4% in CY 2010 to 79.8% in CY 2011 Process Enhancements - The DAP Tipp City Facility has purchased tooling and implemented procedures that allow the facilities 4-stem cartridge filler to completely empty the tanks supplying the 4-stem cartridge filler. This prevents what previously waste in the bottom of the mixing tank from being thrown away. Once again, due to the hard work of our associates, the facility has increased its packaging yield in its 10 oz. cartridge packaging operation. |
