Environmental Waste Management Policy

Ensure compliance with relevant Environmental Waste Management Policy and Regulations. Incorporate environmental considerations into our practices with regard to the use of natural resources, energy consumption and waste disposal. Principles of Industrial Waste Management

Seek to ensure environmental awareness and responsibility on the part of our staff, our suppliers and partners in the implementation of projects, in facilities, management and operations.

Remain committed to prevent pollution.

We will encourage recycling of waste materials and discourage the use of environmentally unfriendly products.

We will continuously monitor and improve our environmental performances.

Auto  Washing Ltd. is well aware about health & safety of its stakeholders as well as about the legal & environmental regulations. Fabric is manufactured and processed as a backward linkage of ready-made garments manufacturing trade. Application of various dyes & chemicals is very essential part & parcel of textile processes. Garments & wastes are the vice versa products of textile industries. There is no way to skip waste generation in this trade. However, proper practices & awareness can help any organization to minimize waste generation and manage waste properly as well. Therefore, Auto  Textiles Ltd. has formed “Waste Management System” (WMS) considering the well-being of the surrounding environment & stakeholders. This management system should comprise the following terms & issues:

Moreover AUTO TEXTILE  has a total set of sewing machines and iron tables which are equipped with servo motors. The product development and sample department has been fitted with the T5 lights which are saving 50% of the consumption of electricity for that floor. As a part of our commitment we also have employed an energy audit team who has already done the audit on electrical load management system. This will allow us to re-modify the existing electrical layouts, load management and efficiently handle the load through a software to manage the load. The company also has a management committee lead by a GM to constantly look after the implementation of new technology to conserve energy.

Ensuring compliance with all local legislations.

Providing all staff and workers with explicit guidance in the safe handling and disposal of all wastes in line with health and safety and infection control requirements;

Wastes should be segregated or classified as Hazardous & non-hazardous, Production & Non-production Wastes to   segregate and treat them accordingly.

Waste generation rate should be monitored so that it can be managed properly. Waste minimization can help substantially to conserve resources.

Effluent Treatment Plant (ETP) should treat liquid (used Dyes & chemicals) wastes.

Factory workers and staffs should be well aware of Source Reduction, Reuse & Recycling (3R principle) of waste so that they can prompt waste management from the beginning.

There should be a Waste Management Committee for decision making & supervising waste management activities within factory premises.

All environmental issues should be supervised & monitored by an Environmental Personnel.

Waste management is very essential to keep the entire environment healthy & clean or to comply with local & international rules & regulations. The terms & conditions of the above mentioned management system might be changed according to the change of local legislations and under the guidance of Department of Environment.

In the dyeing section, the management ensures proper use of underground water by putting a water flow meter in the delivery of booster pumps. By doing so, the dyeing section is experimenting  as less liquor ratio as possible. We will also put a water flow meter in the dyeing machines to ensure the lesser liquor ratio. In the printing section we have implemented dryers on the glass table to reduce the use of hand dryers to have better quality as well as conserve the energy. For water saving, the company uses Spray Nozzles with high pressure to remove the solution in the screen section.

Conclusion

AUTO TEXTILE  also implemented a new technology to recycle the screen of the frame by using some non-hazardous chemicals which removes the solution and re-use it for 4-6 months. This saves a lot of energy by using Environmental Waste Management Policy
