Thomson reclaims millions of pounds of hazardous waste annually, diverting
itfrom landfills. Thomson treats millions of pounds of
wastewater sludgeannuallyand renders it non-hazardous.
Thomson recycles over 50 million pounds of non-hazardous material annually that otherwise would have
been treated as trash, an overall recovery rate of 50%.
Thomson globally recycles millions of poundsof brokentelevisionpicturetube glassannually through both internaland
external reclaim processes.
THE A [R

paints at many locations resulting in an 80% reduction in toxic air emissions for
equivalent material used. Thomson has eliminated the use of
ozone-depleting substances at te I e- vision manufacturing facilities around the world.
Thomson collects and returns over 1_5
million pounds of glass and furnace dust
to the glass making process annually. Thomson has launchedworldwide
energy savings programs which con-
tribute to efforts to reduce air emissions from electrical generating facilities.

Thomson recovers over 2 million
pounds of fine glass particles from process water each year and recycles
them back into its glass furnaces.
