Other Environmental Practices: Recycling - THIS ADHESIVE IS A SOLVENT BASED PRESSURE SENSITIVE TYPE. WE ARE ABLE TO REUSE ANY LEFT OVER ADHESIVE DURING THE NEXT PRODUCTION RUN. Source Reduction: Source Reduction - RUNNING ADHESIVE AT HIGHER SOLIDS CONTENT TO REDUCE EMMISSIONS. |
||
2017 |
Other Barriers to Source Reduction - Worked with adhesive vendor to reduce percentage of toluene in supplied coating. Source Reduction: Source Reduction - Changed % solids of adhesive application, thereby reducing the emissions of toluene. |

W56: We increased the percent solids of the applied adhesive to reduce the amount of toluene applied in our processing. Source Reduction - Running higher percent solids and lower percent toluene in our coating process. Source Reduction - Our Team qualified the application of the higher percent solids of adhesive. Noting not only the reduction in amount of toluene applied, but also reducing the dried amount required by our customer. Source Reduction - Worked with our adhesive vendor to reduce the amount of toluene applied during processing. |
