Gyford Productions is a Reno, NV based manufacturer of sign standoffs and fine machined aluminum hardware components called Gyford StandOff Systems®. Recycling has been an integral part of our manufacturing process since we began full production in 1991. It makes sense economically and ecologically. Today, aluminum is the most commonly recycled post consumer metal in the world. Approximately 40% of the aluminum supply in the United States comes from recycled aluminum and Gyford Productions is doing its part to keep the planet green: We use only U.S. processed aluminum and our extrusions and raw blanks contain up to 75% recycled aluminum. The CNC machines used to produce StandOff Systems™ are equipped to collect even the smallest aluminum particles for recycling. Damaged parts, QA rejects, solids and shavings are also recycled. Air filtration systems are utilized to protect our personnel and miminize pollutants entering the atmosphere.
Chemistry is an important part of the machining, cleaning and polishing done in the manufacturing process. Gyford Productions is extremely selective in choosing only eco-friendly solvents, cutting oils (vegetable based cutting fluids) and polishes. We collect, filter and reuse all of these materials. Any materials that cannot be reprocessed at our facility, are sent to qualified chemical processors and recyclers to be refined and reused.
Packaging practices are modified to minimize waste: newspapers and shredded office papers are used as packaging and filler materials. Cans and bottles discarded in our lunchrooms are collected and recycled. All used computer equipment is disposed of according to recycling best practices. Treated effluent water is utilized on our facility grassy areas, trees and planters.
Environmental concerns have been a top priority in the aluminum industry and the success of this industry is based on its ability to promote energy conservation and waste reduction not only within the industry but also among American consumers.
Gyford Productions is committed to protecting
and saving our environment.
