Every day, companies across a wide variety of industries unknowingly utilize highly toxic MRO chemicals when there are comparable, less hazardous, and even less expensive, alternatives in use within their own organization. Local site buying of these MRO chemicals often results in considerable proliferation of products that fall into the same use category throughout an organization - introducing the opportunity for more toxic and higher cost products to gain a foothold in a companys inventory and operations.
Dolphin Safe Source is a new program that helps companies analyze their organization's current chemical inventory, by leveraging MSDS data, and focus their purchases on the less hazardous and lower cost products they already use in hundreds of product categories. This new purchasing focus results in a reduction of human and environmental hazards, chemical spend, and in a reduction in compliance, handling, and disposal costs. This seminar from Dolphin Safe Source reveals the tools and practices that can help your company realize this supply chain greening and the resulting benefits.
This free, 60-minute seminar will show you how inventory insight can help:
- Reduce regulatory compliance and chemical handling costs
- Reduce product and vendor count and costs
- Provide greater safety for your workers
- Promote sustainability
- Alleviate administrative burdens
