Dal-Tile Plant Earns Zero Landfill Certification for Second Year

Dallas, Texas -- As a result of their Zero Landfill initiative, team members at Dal-Tile’s manufacturing plant in Muskogee, Okla., have kept more than 2,600 tons of waste and materials from ending up in the local landfill since 2014, maintaining the plant’s certification as a Zero Landfill facility.

“The focus of the Zero Landfill initiative at all of our manufacturing facilities is to minimize the environmental impact of manufacturing through resource conservation and waste reduction,” said Robert Hurt, director of environmental, health and sustainability services for Dal-Tile Corp. “We have implemented processes and projects to align with these goals in order to transform all process wastes into valuable resources and implement procedures for proper sorting and management of recyclables in our manufacturing facilities.”
