Before Environmental Technologies of Alabama (ETA) was established in December 2005, the owner worked for one of the largest waste management companies in the United States for over 10 years. After being in the business for 10 years he kept hearing the same old story from customer after customer. In the 1990's when the big environmental companies begin buying each other and merging with their competitors, it appeared the bigger the waste disposal companies got, the less they listened to their customers. This is why ETA was established. Here at ETA, "We understand Rule # 1... If You Don't Take Care of the Customer Someone Else Will".
ETA began in December 2005 as a consulting firm in North Alabama working mainly with Government contracts and asbestos abatement projects. With the experience of our Technical Field Service (TFS), crews and our Health, Safety & Environmental staff, we developed into a full service environmental company. Our services range from asbestos abatement projects to remediating hazardous waste sites. We have our own fleet of tractor trailers, box trucks with liftgates and roll-off containers. Please visit our newest service, "Recycling Services" & "Intergrated Services". These services were both added from listening to our customers.
Just as our mission statement says.... " To provide environmental products and services that meet our customers' expectations to their "Total Satisfaction" through continuous improvements."

High Density Polyethylene (HDPE). HDPE is used to make bottles for milk, juice, water and laundry products. Unpigmented bottles are translucent, have good barrier properties and stiffness, and are well suited to packaging products with a short shelf life such as milk. Because HDPE has good chemical resistance, it is used for packaging many household and industrial chemicals such as detergents and bleach. Pigmented HDPE bottles have better stress crack resistance than unpigmented HDPE bottles. Stiffness, strength, toughness, resistance to chemicals and moisture, permeability to gas, ease of processing, and ease of forming. Milk, water, juice, cosmetic, shampoo, dish and laundry detergent bottles; yogurt and margarine tubs; cereal box liners; grocery, trash and retail bags.

Vinyl (Polyvinyl Chloride or PVC): In addition to its stable physical properties, PVC has excellent chemical resistance, good weatherability, flow characteristics and stable electrical properties. The diverse slate of vinyl products can be broadly divided into rigid and flexible materials. Bottles and packaging sheet are major rigid markets, but it is also widely used in the construction market for such applications as pipes and fittings, siding, carpet backing and windows. Flexible vinyl is used in wire and cable insulation, film and sheet, floor coverings synthetic leather products, coatings, blood bags, medical tubing and many other applications. Versatility, clarity, ease of blending, strength, toughness, resistance to grease, oil and chemicals.

ETA provides products and services that help businesses streamline waste processing and disposal operations. It is an area where huge, long-term cost reductions can be derived with just a few simple approaches. And, due to the degree of neglect and overall mismanagement in this area of business operations, paybacks can be suprisingly quick!One of the most neglected areas of business operations involves the methods that are utilized for managing waste processing and disposal. Typically, streamlining efforts are greatly dependent upon (and evolve in conjunction with) technology or work-flow innovations. As a result, businesses have placed most of their streamlining emphasis in the areas of production, accounting, sales forces and other such areas where software technology and equipment automation have made it more feasible.
ETA provides products and services that help businesses streamline waste processing and disposal operations. It is an area where huge, long term cost reductions can be derived with a few simple approaches. And, due to the degree of neglect and overall mismanagement in this area of business operations, paybacks can be surprisingly quick.
For over 15 years, ETA has been involved extensively in this field. The methods and strategies that we employ are based on a comprehensive, methodical approach that include industry needs, company needs, management needs, employee needs and the needs of our customers.
As a company, we recognize that the needs of each industry with respect to waste processing and disposal are unique. Therefore, our agendas for each of the customer we are involved with are all very different from each other. Within each industry group we are constantly on the look-out for innovative technologies and approaches that address our mission statement.
ETA has been instrumental in the design and implementation of numerous 'tailor made' waste disposal programs that have resulted in tremendous cost reductions and immediate paybacks for our customers.In the years ahead, increasing competition and labor concerns should continue to keep businesses on their toes. Continued consumer resistance to price increases will require plant managers and environmental managers to manage their facilities with extreme efficiency. The new bottom line is that businesses who do not take advantage of cost-reduction alternatives will be at a major disadvantage. Businesses owe it to themselves to evaluate every area of their operations for additional savings.
