Conserving Our Environment for Pennsylvania's Future
Repurposing a New Frontier in Sustainability
Thursday, January 12 at 12:00 (Noon) Eastern
There are a number of used and surplus materials coming from Corporate America that may have value that you might be overlooking. The key is finding a second, unrelated industry where the materials have value. This value creation process is called ÏrepurposingÓ. What are some examples of ÏrepurposingÓ? It is taking a byproduct or waste stream such as a retired street sweeper brush and giving it a 2nd life as a backscratcher for horses or cattle. It is taking a decommissioned fire hose and giving it an extended life as a boat dock fender. It is taking an obsolete ski lift cable and giving it a second life as hand railing in a luxury condo building. Join us for a thought provoking session that will open your mind to new value creating ideas with obsolete materials.
Presenter: Damon Carson is the owner and founder of repurposedMATERIALS. With yards in Arizona, Colorado, Texas, Iowa, Ohio, and South Carolina, his company has a very unique business model focused on ÏrepurposingÓ waste and obsolete materials from Corporate America. repurposedMATERIALS is actually DamonÌs second foray into the waste stream of America albeit with a very different and unique business model. Several years back, he sold a garbage company that he had co-owned in the Colorado ski resorts of Vail and Breckenridge to Waste Management.
