Manufacturing Industry

Large manufacturing firms especially can benefit from streamlining their operations by the introduction of an Environmental Management System. This audit process will help identify all the areas of your company’s operation where environmental benefits can be achieved. Many of these are likely to involve waste minimisation and more efficient resource management. Several Northern Ireland companies have already benefited from implementing such schemes and by reusing materials previously wasted in the production process by simple modifications of procedures, have rapidly recouped any costs involved in implementing the scheme.
Environmental Management schemes can be applied to any area of business and usually result in substantial improvements in the company's bottom line.

Waste mineral oils used in the lubrication of vehicles and machinery are potentially highly polluting and are therefore costly and difficult to dispose of. However, much of this oil can be collected and recycled as low-grade lubricants and industrial boiler fuel. Waste oil companies will come and collect bulk waste oil directly from commercial premises.
