ZEELAND, Mich. - eTradeWire -- Innotec, a Michigan-based manufacturer committed to innovative and sustainable product design, today announced the results of a comprehensive Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) study of its recycled-material counterweights. The study, conducted in partnership with Foresight Management, reveals that Innotec's counterweights generate substantially lower emissions compared to traditional manufacturing methods.

The LCA study, completed in late 2024, evaluated the environmental impact of Innotec's proprietary counterweight manufacturing process, which ingeniously repurposes metal and plastic waste streams. Key findings show that Innotec's innovative approach:

• Produces significantly lower emissions compared to counterweights manufactured from virgin steel
• Generates approximately up to 40% less Global Warming Potential (GWP) emissions per kilogram than concrete counterweights and up to 2250% less than steel.
• Successfully diverts industrial waste streams into valuable new products

"This Life Cycle Assessment validates our commitment to developing technologies that respect the environment while maintaining the highest standards of safety and durability," said Mario Veldhuijzen, Division Leader at Innotec. "By transforming waste materials into high-performance counterweights, we're not only reducing emissions but also contributing to a more circular economy."
