SAVE an estimated 80,000,000 barrels

uses scrap metal in place of ore, there is a 86% reduction in air pollution,
a 76% reduction in waster pollution and a 105% reduction in solid waste.
PROPERLY DISPOSE of millions of gallons
of automotive fluids including gasoline, motor oil, brake and transmission
