FROM AROUND THE HERITAGE GROUP

Powered up by federal funds

THG’s battery recycling company Cirba Solutions will receive around $75 million from the U.S. Department of Energy to expand its lithium-ion processing facility in Lancaster, Ohio. At full operation, the facility will produce enough battery-grade critical minerals — nickel, cobalt and lithium — to power more than 200,000 new electric vehicles each year.

Setting safety records

A safety-first mindset at Monument Baytown has earned the team an impressive safety record: This team of employees, who works with chemicals every day, has marked 12 years without a recordable incident. That’s more than 4,000 days focusing on the task at hand as a team.

Say good-bye to bottled water

Plastic is so passé. Aligning with sustainability efforts across THG, The Center has reduced its carbon footprint by eliminating single-use plastic water bottles from coolers and meeting rooms. If you’re visiting The Center, bring your reusable water bottle with you. And consider how your location might follow suit.
