The Green Manufacturer Network is accepting registrations through the end of this week for the May 18 Take on the Zero-Waste-to-Landfill Challenge. The event will be held at Subaru of Indiana and will include a plant tour so you can see a zero-waste-to-landfill program in action!

In 2004, Subaru became the first automotive assembly plant to be “Zero-Landfill.” SIA

sends nothing from its manufacturing process to the landfill. In other words, a typical household puts more trash in the ground than SIA’s entire manufacturing facility.

Presentations and discussions with industry experts, including Steve Walker of Burt’s Bees and Matt Green of Heritage Interactive will help you get started on your company’s own zero landfill program! And there will be opportunities to converse with other manufacturers taking on the challenge as well.

Owners, plant managers, corporate executives, facilities and EHS managers, engineers, and all others who play a role in making your company’s processes, facilities, operation, and products more sustainable, eco-friendly, and profitable should attend.
