SUSTAINABILITY EFFORTS
Dedicated to Transforming the Future
At Three D Metals, sustainability is not just a goal but a core mission. We are committed to processes and solutions that help create a greener tomorrow. While the journey might be challenging, we are enthusiastic about the potential that awaits and look forward to helping our customers become more environmentally friendly too.
How It All Began
Our commitment to sustainability began with the installation of a renewable energy source – a wind turbine – at our headquarters. At 121 feet high, the turbine saves us an estimated $21,000 a year in energy costs.
Taking Our Environmental Responsibility Seriously
At Three D, we don’t talk, the talk unless we can walk, the walk. Along with our wind turbine, our sustainability initiatives and metals sustainability efforts include:
Recovering 100% of our processing waste
Reusing old skids returned by customers
Transitioning to LED lighting in our facilities
Shipping ferrous metal with metal cores to be recycled by our customers
Updating the transportation fleet with fuel-efficient trucks
Throwing unusable skids into our furnace to reduce energy consumption by 50%
Making sustainability an initiative of our process improvement team
Attending sustainable summits and events
Remaining proactive, not reactive
Envisioning a Greener Tomorrow
In our journey toward enhanced environmental responsibility, we’ve collaborated with a sustainability specialist to conduct a greenhouse gas (GHG) audit and offer tailored solutions to lower our carbon footprint. We’ve already reduced our CO2 output and achieved significant savings, but we’re not done.
Based on the audit’s insights, we’re exploring further carbon-reducing strategies that align with our goals and ways we can pass sustainable efforts along to our customers.
