CS810 Resource efficiency as a driver towards zero-to-landfill
Background for case study
Applying a variety of waste reduction and re-use techniques to its manufacturing plant has enabled DENSO Manufacturing UK Ltd to realise significant cost and environmental benefits. These benefits include about £172,000 annual cost savings through energy efficiency initiatives implemented across the plant, £100,000 cost savings in two years by introducing a pallet re-use and resale scheme, £5,000 reduction in hazardous waste disposal costs identified in the first year by switching from disposable tissues to washable cotton wipes, estimated cost savings of 50% by changing the way lubricating oil is delivered and a 22% reduction in hazardous waste generation.
