Wastewater Treatment Technologies That Protect Our Customers
Coyne began its Coyne Clean program more than a decade ago with a multi-million dollar commitment to developing state-of-the-art wastewater treatment systems. The result was industry-leading systems that are so effective they protect Coyne customers from environmental liability by removing contaminants in the washing process and safely reusing these hazardous liquids. Since inception of Coyne Clean, Coyne has successfully recovered over 11,000,000 gallons of hazardous residuals from our processing facilities, beneficially reusing them as supplemental fuel in cement kiln operations. The bottom line: We're protecting the environment and reducing demand on our natural resources.
Reducing Our Demands On The Environment
Coyne Textile Services has taken a leadership role in the industry when it comes to protecting the environment. Coyne worked closely with the Uniform and Textile Service Association (UTSA) and the Textile Rental Services Association (TRSA) to create LaundryESP -- a voluntary Environmental Stewardship Program designed to reduce waste, save our natural resources, and prevent pollution. LaundryESP includes the removal of pollutants before they enter the laundry facility, as well as quantifiable goals for reductions in water, energy, and washroom chemical usage. The two trade associations and member companies, including Coyne, work closely with EPA, local water treatment authorities, customers, trade groups, environmental groups, and other stakeholders to ensure its success. After just 6 years, the results are remarkable:
