| We strive to integrate a healthy work culture that weaves together the best attributes of all the people who work at AAC. With more than 38 countries represented, we are proud to have employees that represent the best that these countries have to offer.
We are also sensitive to the Japanese culture from our parent company. We have decorated a portion of our lobby area in the Japanese style to bring a bit of that culture to our plant here in KY.
As an extension of our work culture, we participate in and contribute to a variety of communty programs: |

Recently we changed our die cast cooling processes from water quenching to air cooling. We have also reduced our waste to landfill by 69% through recycling programs of cardboard and paper. We regularly inspect the area around our facility for litter pickup, and we support educational efforts to encourage litter prevention. Our annual usage of 38,000,000 pounds of raw material comes from 100% recycled aluminum and we request that every supplier work towards becoming more environmentally friendly through ISO-14001 certification. |
