SCJ’s Aerosol Production Line Marks Milestone

VOC emissions drop by 6 million pounds in first year.

SC Johnson’s newest aerosol production line—which uses compressed gas technology to manufacture Glade and Pledge aerosol products—has reduced volatile organic compounds (VOCs) by approximately six million pounds in its first year of operation—the equivalent of the GHG emissions from 1,600 passenger vehicles per year, or the CO2 emissions from 915,000 gallons of gasoline consumed, according to the company.



The compressed gas line is located at the company’s largest global manufacturing facility—Waxdale, a 2.2 million square foot facility in Mount Pleasant, WI. The products made on the line use nitrogen, a propellant that is comprised of about 80% air and is sourced from the air we breathe.


The company said it is looking to expand its use of this technology to other products and facilities, but did not elaborate on specifics.
