Performance and Compliance
Tex Cycle takes pride with the emission results and aims to achieve the best means to improve the emission quality for the benefit of the staffs and also the surrounding community.
Time, resources and investment have been put into the wastewater treatment facility in Tex Cycle in order to provide quality water although the water is recycled for washing purposes.
- The water used in the decontamination process in Tex Cycle is 95% recycled and the remaining 5% is loss through evaporation. Tex Cycle believes that fresh water is a vital resource although it is usually taken for granted in Malaysia. The natural water catchments areas are dwindling in size therefore, in all of our programmes for school and communities; we encourage the conservation of fresh water. Below is the water quality monitoring results comparison from the wastewater treatment facility in Tex Cycle from 1999 to 2006

| • |
Tex Cycle management realized the high presence of COD, BOD and oil and grease in the raw effluent. After much R&D has been invested into the wastewater treatment facility, the water quality has been displaying a consistent Standard A trend in COB, BOD and oil and grease levels. |
| • |
The working environment in Tex Cycle must be conducive for manual work, therefore maintaining a healthy air quality standard is vitally important. The waste received from the industries contains a mixture of scheduled waste including VOC. Regulating fresh air into the plant and having proper ventilation is a must. In order to determine the level of the air quality, Tex Cycle has engaged with an independent lab for the past three years and the results obtained are far below the permitted levels. |
