2018 Source Reduction:: W42: Substituted raw materials[-50-99%]
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T10: Vendor assistance
W42: Cambro reformulated their liquid polyester resin to a zero-styrene alternative resin type; and reformulated their SMC to a low-styrene resin type. Cambro is continuing progress toward an ultimate goal of zero-styrene raw materials.
2017 Source Reduction:: W42: Substituted raw materials

Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T04: Participative team management
Methods to Identify SR Opportunities: T05: Employee recommendation (independent of a formal company program)
W42: This facility spent months of modifying the manufacturing process, engineering trials, quality testing, product qualifications, etc. in order to reformulate the polyester resin raw materials to a low-styrene alternative.

Source Reduction - Employees realized opportunity to lower styrene content of raw materials to improve employee/community safety and reduce environmental footprint.
Source Reduction - Multiple departments worked together to reformulate resin mix, redesign operating parameters, and test/qualify final products.
