As an advocate for environmental causes and Safety & Sustainability Leader at iMFLUX, Kelly Santini promotes ways to truly realize a circular economy for plastics. “Many things shops can implement to be sustainable are actually things they’d do anyway just because they’d make financial sense,” Santini says. Here, she breaks down a few commonsense ways to be sustainable:

  • Deliver internal energy savings and zero waste to landfill status
  • Ensure the health and safety of employees
  • Design and build molds sustainably
  • Run injection molds sustainably
  • Keep the building sustainable
  • Get people engaged
  • Use simulation in design to reduce rework
  • Employ automation to reduce power demands
  • Recycling anything and everything
