Great Lakes Label’s waste management initiative, supported by Precision AirConvey and Innovative Waste Strategies, earns industry recognition.

90 tons of waste diverted from landfills in just one month. That’s the impressive achievement recently highlighted by Label & Narrow Web, which featured Great Lakes Label’s new waste management initiative and its remarkable first-month results.
The initiative has enabled Great Lakes Label to divert 92% of the waste generated by its operations from landfills, with the potential to exceed two million pounds of annual waste diversion if the current pace continues.
As highlighted in the article, Great Lakes Label invested in a Precision AirConvey (PAC) matrix waste removal system and partnered with Innovative Waste Strategies (IWS) to improve waste handling and diversion.
We’re proud to support Great Lakes Label’s commitment to continuous improvement and responsible manufacturing, and we’re excited to see their achievement receive well-deserved industry recognition.
Congratulations to the entire Great Lakes Label team on this outstanding milestone! We’re also pleased to recognize IWS for its valuable contributions to the initiative.
