Waste Reduction

The average American throws away approximately 4.6 lbs of solid trash per day. Much of this waste material has been transported long distances in its journey to go from raw material to finished product. Everybody pays along the way for transportation, handling and processing. We tend to view environmental programs as compliance activities or as something that just costs money. But, it's more than that. For high performing companies, reducing environmental impact is a strategic necessity along with good safety, high quality, low cost and growing revenue.

IMEC specialists will work with a team of your employees to identify a baseline of environmental wastes. We not only focus on solid waste, but also energy wastes, and water and air emissions.
