3.0Objectives, Targets & Reduction Progress
Zinc Compounds
Objective: The goal of KIK Rexdale is to evaluate the use of zinc compounds and improve efficiencies where available. Although KIK does not formulate the manufactured products, we strive to operate our facility in the most efficient and compliant manner.
Reduction: The KIK Rexdale facilities manufacture consumer goods formulated by customer specifications. Zinc compounds are active ingredients in many of the products KIK is contracted to manufacture. Because of this, it is not feasible to replace the zinc compounds with an alternate ingredient. KIK operates with a goal to reduce waste and reduce the purchase of unneeded inventory.
KIK has determined that additional reduction options are not feasible at this time, but will continue to monitor the progress of emerging technologies and safer alternatives that may become feasible options
Isopropyl Alcohol
Objective: The goal of KIK Rexdale is to evaluate the use of isopropyl alcohol and improve efficiencies where available. Although KIK does not formulate the manufactured products, we strive to operate our facility in the most efficient and compliant manner.
Reduction: The KIK Rexdale facilities manufacture consumer goods formulated by customer specifications. Isopropyl alcohol is an active ingredient in many of the products KIK is contracted to manufacture. Because of this, it is not feasible to replace the isopropyl alcohol with an alternate ingredient. KIK operates with a goal to reduce waste and will work to reduce the purchase of unneeded inventory.
KIK has determined that additional reduction options are not feasible at this time, but will continue to monitor the progress of emerging technologies and safer alternatives that may become feasible options.
PM 2.5
Objective: The goal of KIK Rexdale is to limit the release of fugitive dust from facility equipment and operations. Procedures and precautions are exercised daily to limit the generation of particulate matter. The particulate matter referenced in this plan has a diameter size less than 2.5 microns (PM 2.5).
Reduction: The KIK Rexdale facilities manufacture consumer goods formulated by customer specifications. PM 2.5 is created as a result of the use of active ingredients in products manufactured at the KIK facility. Because of this, it is not feasible to replace the ingredients that lead to the creation of PM 2.5 with an alternate ingredient. KIK operates with a goal to reduce waste and reduce the purchase of unneeded inventory.
KIK has determined that additional reduction options are not feasible at this time, but will continue to monitor the progress of emerging technologies and safer alternatives that may become feasible options
Hydrochloric Acid
Objective: The goal of KIK Rexdale is to evaluate the use of hydrochloric acid and improve efficiencies where available. The hydrochloric acid is used in the water deionization process at both Plant 1 and Plant 2. The deionized water is used in the cleaning process or in specific products.
Reduction: The process requires the use of purified water in many of the manufactured consumer goods. The HCl solution is used to regenerate the resin beds in the deionization system. Alternate chemicals have been evaluated in the past and it has been determined the use of HCl is required. There have been no quantifiable spills of the HCl solution; therefore, new procedures would not result in the reduction in usage. KIK will continue to use the deionization units and handle the HCl solution under current operating procedures to limit any potential for chemical waste or spills.
KIK has determined that additional reduction options are not feasible at this time, but will continue to monitor the progress of emerging technologies and safer alternatives that may become feasible options.
Benzoyl Peroxide
Objective: The goal of KIK Rexdale is to evaluate the use of benzoyl peroxide and improve efficiencies where available. Although KIK does not formulate the manufactured products, we strive to operate our facility in the most efficient and compliant manner.
Reduction: The KIK Rexdale facilities manufacture consumer goods formulated by customer specifications. Benzoyl peroxides are active ingredients in many of the products KIK is contracted to manufacture. Because of this, it is not feasible to replace the benzoyl peroxides with an alternate ingredient. KIK operates with a goal to reduce waste and will work to reduce the purchase of unneeded inventory.
KIK has determined that additional reduction options are not feasible at this time, but will continue to monitor the progress of emerging technologies and safer alternatives that may become feasible options

3.0 Objectives, Targets & Reduction Progress
Chlorine
Objective: The goal of KIK Concord is to evaluate the use of chlorine and improve efficiencies where available.
Reduction: The KIK Concord facility has reviewed the toxic substance reduction options to ensure that there is no net negative impact to the environment or public health. The selected options will serve to reduce the amount of chlorine used in the process, and will not create any toxic by-products.
The following options have been identified to reduce the use of chlorine:
- Option 4: Evaluate a recycling process of the bleach being treated as wastewater
- Option 3 & Option 5: Implement operating procedures to reduce potential spills from the sampling process and filling lines
Option 4: Recycling of Waste Bleach
The KIK Concord facility will evaluate the recycling procedures currently in place at other KIK facilities.
Option 3 & Option 5: Spill Reduction Operating Procedures
Site Environmental Health and Safety staff will review the current operating procedures and develop new Standard Operating Procedures. Once the SOPs are developed, appropriate staff will be trained.
2-Butoxyethanol
Objective: The goal of KIK Rexdale is to evaluate the use of 2-Butoxyethanol and improve efficiencies where available.
Reduction: The KIK Concord facility manufactures consumer goods formulated by customer specifications. 2-Butoxyethanol is an active ingredient in many of the products KIK is contracted to manufacture. Because of this, it is not feasible to replace the 2-Butoxyethanol with an alternate ingredient. KIK operates with a goal to reduce waste and will work to reduce the purchase of unneeded inventory.
KIK has determined that additional reduction options are not feasible at this time, but will continue to monitor the progress of emerging technologies and safer alternatives that may become feasible options.
