Cleaner Production can also reduce company’s costs incurred during the processes taking place within the organization. In the case of companies involved in wood processing (sawmills, carpenters, etc.)a lot of waste in the form of sawdust, shavings or edgings is created. These are materials that can be used as an alternative fuel for firing furnaces and boilers. Good sales management of this type of waste after production allows companies to obtain additional income and minimize environmental risks.
