A Sustainable Future for GLE-Precision
For more than 60 years, GLE-Precision has been a United States-based precision machining company that establishes and respects the environment and our community. As a world-class manufacturing operation, we strive to reduce and eliminate our impact on the environment. We recycle and reuse whenever possible.
Since 2011, environmental and safety metrics have been recorded and reviewed on a monthly basis to monitor any trends that are positively or negatively affecting the business. Each year since 2011 we have added to our company procedures regarding our recycling program and our health and safety program. As the guidelines we follow as a business continue to change, we also change our focus to mirror guiding principles from OSHA, the CDC and the EPA .
