Buy Green in the USA
Charm Factory's manufacturing facility is committed to preventing pollution and moving beyond health and safety compliance. The efficient use of resources like raw materials, energy and water; recycling, recovering and reducing waste materials; and better and safer use of chemicals are all part of a commitment to protect the environment while creating a quality product here in the United States. Environmentally-friendly manufacturing activities are critical now more than ever.
We make the pledge to do our part! |
The Jewelry Manufacturing Facility p2 Award was recently received from the Albuquerque Bernalillo County Water Utility Authority for the following Best Management Practices:
- Maintaining Records of Recycled Materials and/or Waste Disposal
- Managing Waste Investment Properly
- Having a Spill Control Plan in Place
- Practicing Good Housekeeping
- Managing Spent Acid Pickle Properly
- Settling Wastewater from the Tumbling Process
We compete against many Asian manufacturers with few labor and environmental standards. One of the reasons we purchase supplies from US vendors when at all possible is because we can be assured that they must at least meet minimum requirements to protect both workers and the environment. We encourage you to do the same. Investigate the origin of the products you purchase.
In the Charm Factory office, we've also been doing many of the simple things that you can do at home or work - recycling cans and bottles from the kitchen area, shredding and recycling junk mail and paper, switching to compact fluorescent lights and recycled paper, and making changes in our invoicing process to use less paper. |
