Industrial Manufacturing
Manufacturing sites manage emissions, effluent and waste every day while production lines, materials and volumes change. We help factories keep their environmental obligations clear and their records ready for inspection.
Food processing, chemicals, building materials, metals, plastics and other manufacturing activities each produce a distinct environmental profile. A factory's permit conditions typically cover several media at once, and a new product line, raw material or piece of equipment can change what is required.
Lothan supports manufacturers with compliance reviews, permit documentation, environmental management systems aligned with ISO 14001 and the planning of practical controls for emissions, effluent and waste. Where treatment or abatement equipment is needed, we work with approved technical partners to define and compare options.
Sector challenges
- 01
Process emissions
Stacks, dryers, furnaces and solvent use release dust, gases and volatile compounds that must be controlled and monitored.
- 02
Industrial effluent
Process and washdown water can contain oils, solids or chemicals that need treatment before discharge or reuse.
- 03
Hazardous waste and chemical storage
Spent chemicals, sludges and contaminated packaging require correct classification, storage and licensed disposal.
- 04
Keeping pace with operational change
New lines, materials and capacity can create obligations that existing permits and procedures do not yet reflect.
How we help
- 01
Emission source review
We list emission sources, review existing controls and monitoring, and outline improvement options with technical partners.
- 02
Effluent characterization and options
We organize sampling and data review for effluent streams and compare treatment or reuse options that fit the site.
- 03
Hazardous waste procedures
We set up classification, labelling, storage and transfer procedures with records that support every disposal.
- 04
Compliance register and EMS
We build an obligations register linked to change management and, where the client wishes, an ISO 14001 aligned system.
