Operation Clean Sweep
Since 2016, Vinnolit has been supporting “Operation Clean Sweep” (OCS), the plastics industry’s program to prevent the release of plastic pellets, flakes and powders into the environment.
What are the goals of Operation Clean Sweep?
As part of the program, companies from the entire plastics value chain commit to applying “good housekeeping” practices and making their contribution to protecting the environment by reducing pellet losses. Plastics producers, processors, distributors, logistics and recycling companies have the same goal: zero pellet loss.
By signing the “Operation Clean Sweep Pledge” (“OCS Pledge”), each of the four Westlake Vinnolit production sites has committed to introducing a management system to prevent plastic losses in accordance with the principles of Operation Clean Sweep.
By the end of 2024, all Westlake Vinnolit production sites will have successfully passed the external audit by the certifier DNV.
