Save energy with oil-injected GA or oil-free ZR compressors
Kids always say the truth!... hear it from their own voice, we are a company investing in energy efficient solutions.
Compressed air is one of the most important utilities for the industry. It is also one of the largest
consumers of energy. Therefore, compressor energy savings have a significant impact on costs and on the environment.
When looking at the typical carbon footprint of an air compressor - from the design phase right through to the equipment’s recycling - the energy consumed in its use accounts for 99% of CO2 emissions. As energy consumption also typically represents over 80% of a compressor’s lifecycle cost, energy savings in compressed air systems will have a significant impact towards preserving not only the environment but also your bottom line. While compressed air systems in general account for about 10% of total industrial electricity consumption, this can amount to as much as 40% of the electricity bill for certain plants.
