Heat recovery system empowers Envases to be more sustainable

To live up to our promises of being an environmentally conscious manufacturer and to make genuine reductions in our carbon emissions, we set ourselves the goal of controlling and reusing energy across our factory sites.

In 2019, we undertook an energy-saving initiative at our Odense printing factory that introduced a cross exchanger ventilation system. This system recovers hot air from inside our factory space and uses it to heat up incoming fresh air. Not only has this initiative delivered a more comfortable working environment for our hard-working employees and better control over the printing process, but it also enabled us to save 164 tons of CO₂ per year! 

Now, we’re empowered to control our energy consumption and factory heating levels in a much more sustainable way. These small but impactful changes have helped us save 761 tons of carbon across our factories in Løsning, Skive, and Odense.
