All finished products are manufactured from 100% commingled, post-consumer and/or post-industrial recycled plastic (96% by
weight). To obtain color, UV stability and other desirable properties, various additives are incorporated into the plastic;
these items amount to a maximum of 4% of the finished product.Our Green PromiseFrontera Recycled Plastic products are made
using high standards of eco-friendly manufacturing and are designed to last for decades and decades. Here's how we do it:Energy
Efficiency1. Two water chillers (one using 80 amps, another 40 amps) replaced with very energy efficient outside cooling tower
system. All seven extruder lines use this system, which also recycles cooling water use.2. High-temperature, energy-saving
insulation blankets retrofitted on all seven extruder barrels.3. T5 lighting fixtures installed in new 20,000 sq. ft. raw-material
processing building. High-bay 400 watt metalhalide lamps replaced with T5 high-bay lighting fixtures in extrusion building.4.
White, reflective, high-insulation-value, spray foam roofing applied to 38,000 sq. ft. of older manufacturing buildings.5.
Two raw-material processing lines (600 h.p. approx.) run on 3rd shift resulting in more than 50% off peak electricity usage
saving company money and reducing peak daytime usage for electric utility company.6. Regularly repair compressed-air leaks.7.
Converting to programmable thermostats and compact fluorescent lighting in administration and plant areas.8. Lights turned
off in administrative and plant sections when areas not used in 3-shift-per-day operations.9. Variable-frequency A/C drives
used in new extrusion line (125 h.p.). Reducing electrical usage significantly and have reduced maintenance (no brushes).
All extruder lines will be upgraded to these efficient motors (two lines already replaced, one in 2015 and one in 2016).10.
Hybrid company vehicle (Ford Escape Hybrid). 11. Motion-sensitive T5 high-bay lighting in new warehouse.Green Cleaners, Lubricants,
and Chemicals1. Natural, biodegradable cleaning materials used.2. No chemicals used in our manufacturing process.3. Investigating
use of USDA BioPreferred lubricants.Waste Reduction, Recycling, and Reuse1. All products manufactured by the company are made
from 100% recycled plastic, mostly post-industrial scrap with annual production of 5 million pounds per year. All scrap plastic
is sourced from our home state or surrounding states to minimize energy use in transporting our raw materials to the plant.2.
Cardboard and office paper baled for recycling.3. Steel and other metals collected for recycling.4. Use recycling kits and
containers for toner cartridges, fluorescent lamps, and batteries.5. Inbound wood pallets in good condition are reused for
outbound shipments. Damaged pallets and wood scrap (non-treated) are broken down and donated to local residents for heating
in wood stoves. Will transport to a local user.6. Plant tours are encouraged for local schools, organizations, and groups
to demonstrate a successful recycling operation and encourage recycling. Regularly participate in recycling demonstrations
and programs to encourage recycling. |
