Case Study
Challenge
A manufacturer of plastic dispensers for the health and beauty market sought to reduce its waste streams and decrease trash management costs. To handle its current needs, the plant required two trash compactors.
Solution
By instituting a program to recycle additional material beyond the 40% the plant already recycled, AGS entirely eliminated the need for one compactor. AGS reduced pulls by 50% on the remaining compactor by installing a One Plus Waste Edge wireless monitoring system to accurately determine and report container fullness levels. In addition, AGS renegotiated favorable T&D rates with the manufacturer’s waste disposal vendor.
Results
The AGS solution cut waste disposal costs in half while doubling the company’s recycling rate to more than 80%. Also, the plant gained the use of a loading dock with the elimination of the trash compactor.
