Excess inventory, obsolete products, defective products, discontinued packaging; these are just a few of the reasons that businesses wish to remove products from inventory. You could send this material to a landfill. However this is costly and there is no guarantee of product destruction.
One of the more important challenges facing manufacturers today is finding cost-effective and secure disposal options for consumer product waste. Careful consideration must be given to the selection of specific methods. Numerous factors weigh into this decision, including:
- Necessity of assured/certified product destruction to eliminate re-entry to marketplace
- Corporate and local community directives to reduce land disposal
- Elimination of future liabilities associated with land disposal
Depending on the product, there are many different alternative disposition technologies available. These options include:
- Non-hazardous incineration
- Recycle/reuse
- Off-site wastewater treatment
- Aerosol recycling
- Ingredient capture for reuse in other processes
Manufacturers and distributors of solid and liquid consumer products which should be considered for alternative disposition include:
- Health care products
- Creams and lotions
- Shampoos
- OTC Pharmaceuticals
- Toiletries
- Cosmetics
- Household chemicals
- Other commodity waste
Manufacturers and distributors of consumer products may require disposition of off-spec, expired, or returned products, such as:
- Powders, sprays, liquids and gels
- Residue from cosmetic manufacturing
- Aerosol products (with or without residue)
- Plastics and other polymers
- Process water, alcohol or solvent
