PRODUCTS --> Go Green
‘ What cannot be measured cannot be improved ’ ~ Edward Deming
- Environmental safety is making a mark on the world’s population
- The world’s industries are a point of focus because they affect the environment both positively and negatively
- The positive or negative impact, however, depends on a set of processes that are followed
- It is important for industries to have environmentally friendly processes because:
- There can be benefits from waste reduction
- There can be benefits from re-use of material
- Benefits from reducing toxic material that may be an intrinsic part of a product
- Benefits from reduction in pollution ~ manufacturing firms especially need to focus on this
Types of Waste from Manufacturing processes alone:
- Volatile organic material
- Waste water
- Machine lubricants
- Scrap material
- Toxic material
- Greenhouse gas emissions
Go Green can be added as a module to PI+XLE in assisting Consulting Services.
