As theorized and realized, this has increased our operations’ ability to reduce lead times and overall costs; providing the sales team with a new competitive advantage to win more business,” he notes.

They further explain that the new landfills for Baltimore and Las Vegas are high-level upgrades to existing assets, the installation of which causes no disruption to production, which management believes will increase production and yields at those facilities.
