Giving value to sustainability

BUSNAGO, Italy - Nov. 4, 2022 - PRLog -- Today's sectors must implement activities that ensure environmental sustainability, such as saving energy, recycling materials used for production, and limiting water use.

The ecological transition cannot be only based on intentions, concrete actions are needed, especially by companies that play a key role in the fight against climate change.

Workmec, a Italian company specialising in the production of high-quality filter cages and frames for filter sleeves, has recently made major investments with a view to improving energy efficiency.

"We have installed 200 photovoltaic modules on the entire roof of the Italian headquarters, which will allow an annual production of 220,000 to 180,000 kW." - "We have also renewed the lighting system with LED or energy-saving lights," explains Alfredo Bruno, CEO of Workmec.

Thanks to the energy captured by the solar installations, Workmec will cover around 60% of total consumption and reduce annual consumption by at least 20%  thanks to the new lighting system.

For the green conversion of a company, it is essential to pay attention to every business process, from production to product shipment.

"Our company always uses recyclable packaging, with the support of CONAI - Consorzio nazionale Imballaggi. Thanks to this collaboration based on the payment of an annual contribution, the consortium offers support in the separate collection and recycling of packaging waste."

Everyone can make a difference

The issue of sustainability concerns everyone, from individuals to big corporations.

Everyone can make a difference by making conscious choices like driving an electric car.

"Almost 50% of Workmec employees own an electric car, which they can safely recharge at our premises. This has resulted in a reduction of fuel costs by about half."

Automation to support a sustainable approach

Automation today is a solution that allows lower energy consumption and reduces polluting emissions from production, thanks to the optimization of industrial processes.

"Workmec's intelligent and programmable automation machines have made a significant reduction in waste materials possible, as well as time and cost savings." concludes the CEO
