Source Reduction:: S35: Other improvements to inventory and material management
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T04: Participative team management
|
S35: Purchased materials closer to finished size to reduce drop off Source Reduction - Engineering, Purchasing and EH&S worked to get Suppliers to supply pre-cut metals that are closer to our finished dimensions |
2021 |
Source Reduction:: S12: Altered dimensions, components, or final design of product[-15-24%]
|
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T04: Participative team management

Barriers: B7-Barriers to P2 B7 - No known substitutes or alternative technologies.
|
Barriers to P2: B7 - No known substitutes or alternative technologies. - Our product is made from copper. Any reduction means less product / revenue. Customers expect and pay for copper replacement parts |

Barriers: B4-Barriers to P2 B4 - Source reduction activities were implemented but were unsuccessful.
|
Barriers to P2: B4 - Source reduction activities were implemented but were unsuccessful. - Our product is made from copper and its alloys. Our goal was to reduce the amount of drop off transferred to metals recovery as a percentage of qty procured. This past year saw difficulty in getting raw materials closer to the finished size of the finished part |

Barriers: B4-Barriers to P2 B4 - Source reduction activities were implemented but were unsuccessful.
|
Barriers to P2: B4 - Source reduction activities were implemented but were unsuccessful. - manufacturing methods required us to make some components oversize. This increased our recycled offsite transfers. We will be dialing this in a little closer this year as the increase seems a little excessive. |
