1996- Achieved ISO 14001 Certification 2000- Began Eco-Vision Landfill Reduction Activities 2002- Initiated Plastics Recycling 2005- Reduced Production-Related Landfill by 50% from prior year 2012- Constructed Eco-Park (work in conjunction with Keep Blount Beautiful and Maryville City Schools) 2015- Achieved 99.8% Production-Related Landfill Reduction 7
Where We Started 2000 Didn t Know How to Recycle Had to Teach Associates Basic Sorting Knowledge Difficulty in Finding Vendors that were Recycling Waste Streams Recycled: -Small % of Cardboard -Metals Produced 2928 Tons of Production Related Landfill Landfill Photo From 2006 8
Increased Visual Controls Increased Number of Containers Education -Safety, Health & Environment (SHE) Dojo (training all new hires) -Leader College Landfill Lockdown Audits/Data Gathering -Dumpster Dives Improved Sorting Capabilities 9
Dumpster Dives Weighed box before and after sorting 2/3 Recyclables, 1/3 Production-related waste Identified Unique Waste Streams Identified Opportunities for Improvement Communicated Findings to Leadership Chain in Monthly Safety, Health and Environment (SHE) Meetings 10
Identified Waste Streams -Cross Contaminated/Multi-Media, One-Time Use & Hard To Recycle Items Reduce Influx of Styrofoam Peanuts-Purchasing Policy-Only Necessary-Replaced w/air Bags Returned to Vendor (Refrigerated Gel Packs) Donated (Gel Packs, Uniform Pants & Styrofoam Peanuts) Waste To Energy (Aluminum-Coated Reel Bags, Rubber Stoppers, Shoe Covers & Carrier Tape) Aluminum-Coated Reel Bags Rubber Stoppers Shoe Covers (HDPE) Refrigerated Gel Packs Styrofoam Peanuts (EPS) Carrier Tape (Paper & Plastic) 11
Waste To Energy Subject: The benefits of Waste to Energy as a recycling option Purpose: Reduce our impact on landfills and produce electricity. Key Points: 1. Waste to Energy (WTE) is the process of generating energy in the form of electricity &/or heat from the incineration of waste. 2. Wastes that are multimedia (plastic AND paper), not marketable & one-time use are good candidates for WTE because they are labor-intensive to recycle 3. Many different types of wastes are collected at each plant and then commingled in the collection container 4. Almost any solid waste can be sent as WTE except liquids, hazardous materials or glass 5. Reduce, Reuse or Recycle are our first options but WTE is a good alternative Reason: Reduce the amount of waste we send to landfill and produce energy. 12

RECYCLED (VALUE): -Cardboard = 3,219 Tons -Metal Scrap = 8,607.22 Tons -Plastics = 927.07 Tons DONATED (NO VALUE): -Wood Pallets = 474 Tons -Aluminum Cans & Plastic Bottles = 15.52 Tons -Paper = 7.48 Tons -Clothing = 1.57 Tons -Styrofoam Peanuts = 1.48 Tons WASTE TO ENERGY (PAY/COSTED): -Non Recyclable Materials = 201.15 Tons TOTAL: - MATERIAL DIVERTED FROM LANDFILL = 14,709.34 Tons (29,418,680 lbs.) 14
Shift Focus from Landfill to Total Waste Management (TWM) 15
TWM refers to reducing both landfilled and nonlandfilled waste including hazardous waste, recycled waste, waste incinerated for energy recovery, and other wastes (every single thing that leaves our campus as a waste). Costed Waste is a subset of Total Waste and includes all wastes that incur a net cost for disposal. Difficult Mind Set Shift 16
Total Waste Costed Waste Landfill Base Year 2014 2014 2015 Reduction Targets (%) Annual 2018 2020 2025 3 18 24 34 1.5 7.5 12.5 25 MAINTAIN 17
Scrap Has a Direct Impact to S/A Division Profit Total Scrap Dollars for 2015 = $4.3 Millions Dollars! Scrap % By Section Scrap History 65.1 8.1 26.8 Sta Alt Parts Top 7 Departments: * High Copper Content * Most technical lines * Historic bottlenecks * Complex processes Since Scrap has a Direct Impact to Cost Competitiveness & Profit, it also creates Increase in OVERTIME to keep customer supplied Productivity loss for the Next Process Negative impact to our reputation with Customers, End Users. 18
Teams With Largest $ Amount and Largest Percentage Reduction (Base line 4 th Quarter 2015 + April 2016 minus largest monthly amount) (Cannot be same team) 1. Competition starts June 2016 through August 2016 2. Lunch from Texas Roadhouse for entire team ($20/person limit) 3. Tee shirt from company store with Scrap Project Logo Largest $Reduction 1.CST-2 = $71,350 Reduction Largest %Reduction 1.PMO = 72.9% Reduction 19
Move from 12-15 Recycling Vendors to 1-5 Vendors Continue to Improve Education & Associate Involvement, especially based on projected growth Grow Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Activities to further involve associates and the community Develop Environmental Cross Functional Teams at Each Division to Focus on Increased Participation Create Benchmark Environmental Preferable Purchasing Program 20
