UrBC, Yekaterinburg, January 25, 2018. Sinara Group’s TMK CHERMET worked on a number of projects to bring down its scrap metal-processing facilities’ environmental impact in the Year of The Environment, the Group’s PR Center reports.

‘For one, the company came up with a program for sewage disposal at its production site in Volzhsky and expanded the area of concrete-covered scrap metal storage facilities at its sites in Taganrog, Yekaterinburg, and Engels. Also, training sessions were conducted with employees, accompanied by a number of supporting visual aids on sites.’

‘The company’s nineteen production sites all took part in the very first Environmental Leader Corporate Contest. Taganrog-based scrap metal-collecting depot TMK Chermet-Rostov won the first prize. For five months, TMK CHERMET’s ad hoc committee kept monitoring the production sites that best complied with the existing environmental regulations,’ the PR Center says.

TMK CHERMET’s Production Director Alexander Rozhnev stressed that the corporate contest was an internal audit of sorts and was meant to make sure the depots complied with the scrap metal storage safety regulations, attended to all the environmental problems detected earlier, and engaged all of their workers into a united effort to meet the environmental standards.
