Hyundai Motor Asan Plant Achieves Highest Grade in 'Zero Waste Landfill Certification'
Hyundai Motor Company announced on the 24th that its Asan plant has achieved the highest Platinum grade in the Zero Waste to Landfill certification from UL Solutions, an international safety science certification organization.
The Zero Waste to Landfill certification is awarded to facilities that manage waste in an environmentally friendly and responsible manner, including ▲energy production through incineration ▲reuse ▲recycling ▲composting.
UL Solutions, which handles the certification, verifies through document review and on-site inspections whether the facility's waste storage and disposal processes meet the specified standards. It also measures the facility's actual recycling rate and awards ▲Platinum grade (actual recycling rate 100%) ▲Gold grade (actual recycling rate 95%?99%) ▲Silver grade (actual recycling rate 90%?94%).
Hyundai Motor’s Asan plant actively practices resource circulation by recycling scrap metal generated from the automotive press process to produce steel products and fully recycling waste molding sand and waste aluminum from the engine production process as raw materials for engine manufacturing.
