Coolant Recycling Pioneer Master Chemical Corporation Introduces Green Policy
Master Chemical Corporation has introduced its Green
Policy which focuses on protecting people, planet, and profitability.
The company, known as the originators of coolant recycling, traces its
history of environmentalism back more than half a century. "Master
Chemical was green long before people were talking about green or the
environment," said Chairman and CEO, Joe H. Wright.
Master Chemical was one of the first companies in the world to
voluntarily and rigorously test its products for safety--a practice
that continues to this day. With the introduction of the breakthrough
XYBEX total coolant recycling system in the 1970's, Master Chemical
virtually eliminated the need for coolant waste disposal. This
historical concern for safety, conservation, and innovation has infused
the development of its products and services--and its future direction.
Master Chemical's belief in the vital importance of protecting people,
planet, and profitability is the foundation of its Green Policy.
Master Chemical's Green Policy addresses actions taken to protect
people, citing that its formulations are made exclusively with
high-purity raw materials. Final formulations are put through intensive
independent testing to ensure a safer work environment. The Green
Policy also describes the company's extensive education and training
about appropriate usage of Master Chemical products and workplace
safety overall.
According to Mr. Wright, the Green Policy describes some of the
company's early environmental accomplishments and goes on to detail
current and planned initiatives to protect the planet. The company has
implemented global office energy reduction and recycling and uses
recycled products in its offices and plants. "Our global coolant
management programs and recycling systems continue to reduce industrial
waste, which lessens impact on the environment," he said. "Master
Chemical will continue to factor safety, conservation and cost
reduction in meeting the stringent needs and standards of the future,"
added Mr. Wright.
Profitability is the third category addressed in Master Chemical's
Green Policy. For Master Chemical, profitability means not only
creating products and solutions that reduce cost, but also working
closely with its distributors and customers to identify and solve
problems in the field. Master Chemical distributors are trained to
provide multiple solutions including process improvements designed to
increase throughput or reduce product usage.
The Green Policy cites the many ways that Master Chemical impacts its
customers' profitability such as cutting costs with coolant management
systems and recycling equipment; providing training to ensure cost
reductions when recycling systems are used; lowering waste-related
expenditures through recycling; reducing hauling and shipping charges;
and lessening energy usage in metalworking and cleaning. The policy
mentions plans for the future; including partnering with like-minded
global organizations and developing even more efficient systems and
formulations.
