Webinar Title: Sharing Successes from the Safer Chemistry Challenge Date: Wed, Feb 27, 2013 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM ESTRegister: https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/6697412645320370432
Description: This webinar will examine the successes of the past year of the Safer Chemistry Challenge Program. It will provide attendees with background into the program and a case study of the program in action.
Washing Systems, a SCCP charter member, has put significant effort and research toward safer chemistry in their cleaning formulations. Working with their customers, they are eliminating or reducing chemicals of concern. Washing Systems set the following reduction goals as part of their SCCP commitment: 100% nonylphenol ethoxylates (NPE); 100% butyl cellosolve; 100% petroleum hydrocarbon based solvents; and 100% EDTA or ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid. They have seen significant strides in reaching those goals and all chemical reductions are thus far on target. The most significant reduction has been with phosphates with a goal of 50% and a reduction of less than 5% prior to entering SCCP--they have already reduced 95%, exceeding their program goal.This webinar is part of the Spring 2013 Safer Chemistry Challenge Program Webinar Series.
