Eliminating waste adds value to your bottom line and makes your company greener. Subaru of Indiana Automotive—one of the largest manufacturing plants in Indiana—saw value in eliminating waste and is now a “zero landfill” plant: None of their waste goes to a landfill. Instead, they have eliminated as much waste as possible and they have found markets that reuse or recycle what remained.

Brent Lank, ISO 14001 Project Manager for SIA, will present SIA’s program during our Go Lean by Going Green workshop on Friday, March 28, in Richmond. Start: 5:00 pm
