Environmentally Responsible Manufacturing (ERM) Industry Survey



Thank you for visiting Michigan Technological University's Environmentally Responsible Manufacturing survey page. This survey provides a pathway for manufacturing companies to exchange information with a research institution about the problems they most commonly face with respect to the environment and worker health/safety. This site has been developed by MTU's "environmentally responsible manufacturing" research group with the sole purpose of keeping their research efforts closely tuned in to industry's needs. Specific information (company names, plant names, process descriptions, etc.) supplied by companies will not be divulged to any other organization or party. It is intended that general results (statistical information, common case studies, etc.) will eventually be provided as a resource to the companies participating in the survey.
