How can manufacturing rubber and plastic products affect the environment?
If you manufacture rubber and plastic products, your business can have a number of impacts on the environment: • air emissions, for example from di-isocyanates and other volatile organic compounds (VOCs) • land contamination, for example from chemical storage areas • noise pollution, for example from plant and machinery • waste disposal, for example by-products from your processes and contaminated chemicals containers • water discharges, for example water used for cleaning.
