Barriers: B1-Barriers to P2 B1 - Insufficient capital to install new source reduction equipment or implement new source reduction activities/initiat
|
Barriers to P2: B1 - Insufficient capital to install new source reduction equipment or implement new source reduction activities/initiat - 2 NEW MOLDING CELLS COMING ON LINE WITHIN NEXT COUPLE MONTHS. THIS SHOULD REDUCE CHANGE OVER WASTE. |

Barriers: B1-Barriers to P2 B1 - Insufficient capital to install new source reduction equipment or implement new source reduction activities/initiat
|
Barriers to P2: B1 - Insufficient capital to install new source reduction equipment or implement new source reduction activities/initiat - We're focusing more on higher volume customers/projects that reduce the need for material systems change over (reducing need to flush between formulations). We've invested significant resources in 2 major projects, depleting capital. Assuming the projects are successful, we should benefit financially, providing necessary capital. |
