Closed-Loop Recycling
Washington Mills has created a recycling program that allows for spent aluminum oxide to be returned to the furnace. This process removes contaminants prior to manufacturing new virgin fused aluminum oxide creating a 100% closed loop process. Spent aluminum oxide grit is used to lower the dependency on expensive raw materials.
Eliminate Landfill Costs
The cost of disposing spent fused minerals is expensive to the end-user, and to the environment. Washington Mills' recycling program minimizes the expense of disposal by offering a green recycling option. Greening a supply chain makes products more desirable to consumers and pushes down costs. Washington Mills can assist companies with selecting the best spent material collection system for their process.
Avoid Disposal Liabilities
Recycling spent abrasive grain decreases the carbon footprint left behind during the manufacturing process virtually eliminating disposal liabilities. The recycling program at Washington Mills assumes spent grit liabilities once material is tested and approved by a team of recycling specialists.
