In 2005, Veyance, then Goodyear Engineered Products, expanded their plant in Lincoln, Nebraska. According to John Leach, Engineering Manager, in order to reduce the pollutants that the new equipment would emit, Veyance turned to Stelter & Brinck because "S&B are experts; they have significant experience with thermal oxidizers". Leach went on to say that S&B was "very easy to work with" and they "knew the right questions to ask to build the final product we wanted." He exclaims, "Stelter & Brinck has excellent workmanship and execution! All of S&B's departments are very friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful!"

When asked about the quality of S&B's equipment, Leach declared that it "is terrific". He says the Lincoln plant has "relied on S&B's equipment every day since installation" and "I get what I expect time after time from S&B's equipment." Leach explains that, "since installation, S&B's oxidizer has continually destroyed 99.9% of VOC emissions." Leach goes on to say, "the overall result of S&B's equipment has been tremendous; since installation, our entire plant has reduced pollutants by 70%!" In fact, "with the help of S&B's thermal oxidizer", Leach states, "we won an Environmental Leadership award due to our reduction of harmful emissions!"
