AB&I foundry joins the sustainability circle peer to peer program

March 2017 - AB&I Foundry, an Oakland-based company that manufactures cast iron pipe and fittings for the plumbing industry, has joined the REV Net Business Sustainability Group, part of the flagship Sustainability Circle program.

The REV Net Sustainability Circle program will help AB&I adopt sustainability practices, including behavioral changes in a proven peer-learning model, which are intended to accelerate business impact. The REV Net program will enhance existing initiatives while identifying new ways AB&I can reduce and recycle by-products in the manufacturing processes.

"As part of this group AB&I will create a five-year sustainability action plan where key initiatives are identified ultimately driving efficiencies all while fostering a green culture within the company," said Mike Olvera, environmental and sustainability manager of AB&I Foundry. "AB&I is environmentally conscience. Our products are made from 100 per cent post-consumer scrap metal and they're 100 per cent recyclable at the end of their service life."

"The manufacturing atmosphere is changing and there are many progressive forward thinking companies like AB&I Foundry that strongly believe in embracing thoughtful sustainability manufacturing practices. AB&I fits perfectly into our sustainability business model and we are excited that they have chosen to be part of our program," said Jenny Sant'Anna, REV vice president of operations. "AB&I's participation in the program and the development of a robust sustainability action plan confirms their strong commitment toward building an environmentally conscientious, resilient, and flourishing future for their business and their community."
