Source text - English Jabil Waste Reduction Initiatives Save Money, Space and the Environment

In 2008, Jabil strengthened its commitment to the environment by implementing a global environmental management system. Today it is one of the largest certified systems of its kind in the electronics manufacturing industry, enabling a long-term carbon emissions and energy effort. In its first two years, Jabil achieved a more than 10 percent global reduction based on intensity factor.
Jabil’s plant employees around the globe have embraced the Do Your 2 program and invented new ways to conserve in both major systems and everyday operations, helping Jabil to reduce costs and emissions. For example, in Jabil’s Memphis Aftermarket Services Plant, the Fill it up with air project replaces bulky Styrofoam with inflatable air cushions as set-top box shipping packaging. The Fill it up with Air project, now implemented in other Jabil locations around the globe, significantly reduces shipping costs for customers, takes up less room on the plant floor and reduces impact on the environment.
A Jabil team in St. Petersburg implemented a solid waste reduction program to reduce bulky packing foam used to protect shipments of products and components. By making the foam smaller, it is easier to handle, store, and recycle. The successful project, implemented at other sites around the globe, reduced solid waste volume by 77% at the St. Petersburg location.
Jabil’s strategy for minimizing the impact of its operations and preserving natural resources is focused on reducing waste, energy consumption and our carbon emissions. Jabil’s waste reduction initiatives are good for the environment, community and business.

En 2008, Jabil fortaleció su compromiso con el medio ambiente al implementar un sistema global de administración ambiental. Hoy, éste es uno de los sistemas de su índole con más certificaciones en la industria de manufactura electrónica, que además acredita un esfuerzo de largo plazo de reducción de energía y emisiones de dióxido de carbono. En sus dos primeros años, Jabil logró una reducción de 10% global basada en el factor de intensidad.
Los empleados de Jabil alrededor del mundo han adoptado el programa Do Your 2 y han inventado nuevas formas de conservar tanto en los principales sistemas con en las operaciones diarias, ayudando a Jabil a reducir costos y emisiones. Por ejemplo, en la planta de Jabil Memphis AMS, el proyecto "Llénalo con aire" (Fill it up with air) reemplazó la voluminosa espuma de poliestireno por colchones de aire inflables para proteger el producto empacado. El proyecto, ahora implementado en otras plantas de Jabil alrededor del mundo, reduce significativamente costos de envío para los clientes, ocupa menos espacio en el piso de producción y reduce el impacto ambiental.
Un equipo en Jabil San Petersburgo, Florida, implementó un programa de reducción de desechos sólidos para reducir la voluminosa espuma de embalaje que se usa para proteger los envíos de productos y componentes. Al reducir el tamaño de la espuma, se vuelve más sencillo su manejo, almacenamiento y reciclaje. El exitoso proyecto redujo el volumen de desecho sólido en un 77% en la planta de San Petersburgo, y también ha sido implementado en otras plantas alrededor del mundo.
La estrategia de Jabil para minimizar el impacto de sus operaciones y preservar recursos naturales, se enfoca en reducir desechos, consumo de energía y emisiones de dióxido de carbono. Las iniciativas de reducción de desperdicios de Jabil son buenas para el ambiente, la comunidad y los negocios.
