Oakleaf Shares Zero Waste Successes-Webinar to Showcase the Pepsi Bottling Group
PRLog (Press Release) –
Jul 13, 2009 – OAKLEAF, a leading provider of sustainable waste logistics and recycling solutions, is sharing The Pepsi Bottling Group’s successes with recycling and waste diversion during an online webinar Thursday, July 23, 2009 from 2:00 to 3:00 p.m. Eastern Time.
The Pepsi Bottling Group (PBG) is an OAKLEAF client and the world’s largest manufacturer, seller and distributor of Pepsi-Cola beverages which produces some of the world’s most recognized consumer brands. With approximately 70,000 employees PBG generates nearly $14 billion in annual sales.
The webinar, entitled “Zero Waste…One Solution,” will demonstrate how waste reduction can change from a cost center to a profit center via recycling and waste diversion. Progress toward PBG’s goal of zero waste is being realized through installation of a standardized program for recycling and diversion.
“OAKLEAF recognizes that all waste stream solutions must be operationally and economically feasible for businesses, and we are pleased the programs rolled out within
The Pepsi Bottling Group are producing the intended results,” said Stephen Caruso, Senior Vice President of Vendor Relations and Procurement at OAKLEAF and head of the Zero Waste Team.
Attendees of the webinar, “Zero Waste…One Solution,” will learn how initiating zero waste efforts at their own facilities can demonstrate leadership in sustainability and provide bottom line improvements. Panelists will review the processes used at select sites within PBG that reduced the amount of waste going to the landfill by as much 68%.
“The ultimate goal for us is to drive toward zero waste. We want essentially less than 1% of any waste we generate to go into a landfill,” said Kevin Winston, Regional Environmental Manager at The Pepsi Bottling Group. Winston added, “You have to keep in mind it’s a journey not a destination. So you have to focus on your highest value, highest volume commodities first to maximize your effectiveness in waste reduction.”
