As an advocate for environmental causes and Safety & Sustainability Leader at iMFLUX, Kelly Santini promotes ways to truly realize a circular economy for plastics. “Many things shops can implement to be sustainable are actually things they’d do anyway just because they’d make financial sense,” Santini says. Here, she breaks down a few commonsense ways to be sustainable:
- Deliver internal energy savings and zero waste to landfill status
- Ensure the health and safety of employees
- Design and build molds sustainably
- Run injection molds sustainably
- Keep the building sustainable
- Get people engaged
- Use simulation in design to reduce rework
- Employ automation to reduce power demands
