Gage Refining Services is a leading provider of sustainable solvent-recovery and waste-stream management programs working with a number of diverse industries including automotive, paints and coatings, chemical and pharmaceutical.

The company’s environmentally proactive model helps customers develop systems for liquid waste removal, refining, and redeployment as a commercially salable product.

Gage’s customers not only see lower disposal and waste-handling costs, they realize the added benefit of an environmentally sound program. This helps them meet increasing environmental demands from government legislation, shareholders and the general public.

Gage is not a waste company that simply removes and disposes liquid waste. Gage is a chemical company reprocessing spent liquid streams for commercial applications.

Gage maintains the highest quality standards and meets the most rigorous regulatory requirements. The company guarantees its customers that their waste streams will not be co-mingled with materials from other companies, and that there will be no cross-contamination from previously-processed waste stream residue.

With this type of environmental leadership, Gage helps customers build a positive program surrounding their hazardous materials handling and processing, with a clear focus on environmentally sound, cost effective solutions.

Gage also optimizes the process of spent-stream handling in other areas. Waste is removed as quick as possible to reduce risk caused by the on site storage of hazardous liquids. Gage’s decades of experience in this industry also provides a knowledge base for customers to handle in-house hazardous waste transfer as well as consulting on documentation and reporting.

Bringing the cycle full circle, Gage remanufactures the spent streams into useful commodities. These commodities are distributed directly to other Gage customers, not placed on an open brokerage exchange. This targeted distribution approach gives companies a significantly improved understanding of their liquid waste’s final destination, reducing any liability issues associated with recycled products being misused or improperly applied.

Gage also brings a global presence to its customers. Headquartered in Ferndale, MI, since 1936, the company has operations in Germany, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Brazil and Mexico. Gage’s fully licensed Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) facilities refine waste and “off-spec” solvent streams to original product specifications. The company has earned both ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certification as well.

Gage is dedicated to effective and responsible resource management, which provides long-term environmental benefits. The firm is a charter member of the Southeastern Michigan Sustainable Business Forum and a participant in Ford Motor Company’s Project Heritage program.
