Environmental Initiatives
POP Displays has made a pro-active commitment to reduce our environmental footprint.
Each year, we recycle 1 million pounds of plastic, 900 gallons of oil, 2.5 million gallons of water and we recycle our obsolete metal tools. We save 3 million KWh of electricity with our energy efficient lighting and voluntary reductions. All corrugate is recycled and we use a shredder to re-deploy corrugate waste for packing material.
We utilize cellular manufacturing, where equipment and workstations are arranged in an efficient sequence for continuous movement of inventories and materials from start to finish in a one piece flow. This prevents overproduction and storage/ transportation of components. It also catches defects in real time to eliminate waste.
We challenged ourselves to do more and initiated a Green Symposium with suppliers and industry experts to learn about best practices, cutting edge materials and processes and apply these to the development and production of our displays.
