Boride Engineered Abrasives (Traverse City, Mich., U.S.), a manufacturer of high-quality abrasive grinding and polishing products, reports that it is taking a fun and unique approach to reducing its environmental footprint by producing functional and attractive beverage coasters using residual material that would otherwise be placed in Michigan landfills. Boride now recycles approximately 50,000 pounds of fine abrasive reclaim each year through its new organization, Traverse Custom Coasters.

Traverse Custom Coasters offers both tabletop and car-sized coasters that are said to be highly absorbent and fully customizable utilizing full color laser printing technology. Customers can choose from a wide variety of standard designs or provide artwork to create a unique, one-of-a-kind coaster for their business or promotional needs.

“We’ve created an amazing product which saves nearly all of our abrasive reclaim from landfills,” says Boride’s VP of sales and marketing, John Sak. “As part of our mission, we also donate a portion of our proceeds to the Conservation Resource Alliance whose objective is to help manage and protect Michigan’s natural river resources.”
