This project demonstrates how engineers came to aid the Gulf of Mexico
coast community to improve the response efforts to the oil spill and to
conserve resources. Air-baffle
components were molded from 100%-recycled material comprised of: 25% PP Gulf
oil-boom absorbent (recycled previously from automotive waste), 25% used
Milford Proving Ground test tires, and 25% polymer packaging aids from other
General Motors’ facilities, plus 25% post-consumer PE bottles.
