Mumford Industries SC

Ohh, the queasy relationship between sustainability and profitability. The back and forth, the ups and downs have many business leaders and their teams feeling sick
and struggling to find good balance and stability. Healthy sustainability initiatives need to be considered value-driven and that requires examining total waste costs.
Let’s base our examination on the old school 3 R’s ~ Reduce, Reuse and Recycle

Reduce- Health management begins here. Not creating waste is an instant cure for bleeding out . Where is scrap being produced and why? “An ounce
of prevention is worth a pound of cure”.

 

Reuse- This has become a popular antidote to trash spending. Circular resourcing programs can be a great value addition to not only your sustainability program but bottom-line savings as well.

 

Recycle- A recycling program focused on efficiency and return on investment is achievable. The era of generating profit from scrap material has become anemic, giving way to a structure that focuses on cost containment and overall financial health.



Unhealthy waste and recycling programs do not happen overnight and the malaise of "this is how we've always done it" can be cured. You may need a trusted specialist on your healing journey to help you minimize waste, optimize resource reuse and improve recycling, ultimately enhancing the long-term financial prognosis of your company.
