- RheTech will ensure the safe handling and disposal of waste; and where applicable, has instituted multiple recycling programs.
- To protect our employees and the communities in which we operate we will use safe technologies and operating procedures, as well as being prepared for emergencies.

- We will continuously seek opportunities to improve the effectiveness of our health, safety, and environmental management system.
Traditional mineral fillers such as and calcium carbonate take large amounts of energy to produce. RheVision can replace these traditional mineral reinforcements with renewable bio-waste streams. The majority of RheVision products use bio-fibers that are traditionally seen as waste by their current industries. These fibers come from a wide variety of sources but none are produced for the sole purpose of being added to plastic.
By using RheVision, you are reducing the amount of reinforcements being mined and processed by high energy manufacturers. RheTech also offers RheVision compounds that include post-industrial and post-consumer resins. This allows customers to give themselves an edge in the marketplace by bringing “greener” products to market.
