ZERUST® Cares about the Environment |
Using ZERUST® Corrosion Inhibiting VCI bags and Rust Preventative Coatings to protect metals and Rust Removers to restore parts saves up to 95 percent of the energy required to produce new parts. Furthermore, preventing rust also reduces CO2 emissions associated with reprocessing scrap into new parts and the environmental waste stream from failed parts.
|
ZERUST® Helps Remanufacturing |
ZERUST® is also a key tool for remanufacturing operations. Industrial remanufacturing refurbishes items such as engines, transmissions, and other valuable assemblies into like-new condition. As a result, this prevents large amounts of waste from going to a landfill by rebuilding and making it usable again. In addition, the rebuilt part often has the same expected life as the original new part. For example, the energy saved by recycling one pound of steel can run a 60-watt light bulb for over a day.

ZERUST® Green VCI is Recyclable |
Not only do ZERUST® products prevent waste, but they are also environmentally responsible. Furthermore, ZERUST® VCI Poly Bags and Films and Kraft Paper products are recyclable. However, we always recommend checking with local and national regulations on disposal options.
