When companies submit their SGP data, they can use the benchmarking tool to determine how well their environmental performance and costs compare with other companies that operate the same metal finishing processes. For example, you can determine if you are paying too much for water/sewer charges. The benchmark reports can be accessed from the SGP Facility Reports page.

SGP is a voluntary program intended for metal finishing companies that strive to continuously improve their environmental performance. SGP is the result of a unique cooperative effort between representatives of EPA, the metal finishing industry, state and local governments, environmental organizations, and others. The SGP website is maintained and operated by the National Center for Manufacturing Sciences (NCMS) and the National Metal Finishing Resource Center (NMFRC).
