We will continue to proactively manage our material consumption, monitor usage and improve operations to ensure that our manufacturing and production processes are operating at the highest level of efficiency. Calgon Carbon is also committed to promoting our reactivation process and services which allows us to minimize the environmental impact of our purification products by achieving the highest level of use out of the raw material input. The continuous cycle of reactivating spent activated carbon extends the life of the product, originally derived from a non- renewable material.
An example of our commitment to proactively managing materials is evidenced through implementation of waste to feedstock projects at multiple locations.
