Not only this, but we are also committed to conducting our business in a manner that delivers continuous improvement in environmental performance and protects the quality of communities where we operate. Ryder EMS and our employees resolve to constantly improve our operations to reduce environmental impact wherever techno-economically feasible, while achieving economic growth. This, we will achieve by:
- Reusing and recycling wherever possible in all areas of operation, to conserve resources and minimize waste;
- Restricting use of hazardous materials and reducing harmful emissions;
- Responsibly managing energy use;
- Creating products that are safe in their intended use, conserve energy and materials, and minimize pollution throughout the product life cycle from design through purchase, manufacture, and use through to end-of-life management;
- Proactively carrying out environmental protection initiatives, which we will communicate to our employees and stakeholders.
- Energy Efficiency
- Energy Conservation
- For optimum electricity consumption, high frequency ballasts and power supplies are used in all operations.
- To maximize efficiency of air-conditioning, buildings have been designed with heat insulating walls and low ceilings, and curtains are fitted.
- Exhaust Emission and Noise Pollution Control
- Environmental filters are used in air-conditioners to meet exhaust emission regulations.
- Sound-insulating walls are installed around the power generator room to reduce noise pollution.
- Water Resource Management
- Hot water to employee dormitories is supplied by recycling the heat from air compressors and by a solar water- heating system.
- A multi-step biological filtration process is implemented to make waste water safe for recycling into industrial use, and make it safe for release into the environment.
- Chemical Substances Reduction
- Manual soldering processes have been optimized to reduce emission of hazardous chemical substances.
- A multi-level filtration process is used on the shop floor to minimize the release of hazardous chemical substances.
