From question to transformation
Every business area within the Group is committed to delivering environmentally-responsible solutions. In our quest to positively impact the planet, we analyzed our products' lifecycle and thought, what if our products could assist in lowering our customers' CO2 emissions? With the 'What if' concept, the Group's business areas commenced a new trend to contribute to our customers' sustainability ambitions.
Here's how the products from all the business areas continue contributing to it.
Meet the ZR Oil-free air VSD+ Compressor
This Compressor Technique Business Area innovation caters to food, beverages, chemicals, and pharmaceuticals industries where clean, compressed air is a must. Powered with Variable Speed Drive technology, it meets the air demand by automatically adjusting the motor speed, resulting in up to 35% energy savings.
So, what if all the related industries upgrade to this technology? Well, here's how it can create a positive impact.
Power-up with E Air H250 VSD portable compressor
The portable compressor by Power Technique Business Area generates more power than diesel engines with its efficient electric drivetrain. This compact and lower-weight compressor is energy-efficient, versatile, and performs exceptionally. Also, emits 46% less carbon compared to its diesel counterpart.
So, what if 4/5 portable compressors globally are the E Air H250 VSD portable compressors? The results can be inspiring.
Epitomizing ergonomics - EBB 26 battery drill
Designed with ergonomics, operator comfort, and usability in mind, the EBB26 is Atlas Copco's first battery-powered handheld drill developed for the aerospace industry. The handheld drilling tool can lower 93% of the energy consumption per drilled hole than its pneumatic counterpart. One EBB 26 battery drill can save 0.72 metric tons of CO2 in its lifetime of 6 years.
So, what if aerospace engineering companies worldwide upgrade to this technology? How much CO2 emission could be controlled?
iXL900R vacuum pump
Designed for the semiconductor and electronics manufacturing industries, the iXL900R vacuum pump from the vacuum technique is greener, reliable, and has a lower ownership cost. This environmentally-conscious innovation can save 83.4 metric tons of CO2 during its lifetime. What if related industries switched to these pumps? The possibilities to reduce the carbon footprint can be promising.
The 'What if' concept holds the potential to transform the vision of reducing carbon footprint into a reality. With industries worldwide taking climate concerns into consideration, carbon-reducing technology would be preferred over conventional ones. We firmly believe and strive to halve our CO2 emissions from operations, products, and services. The 'What if' concept is the enabler. It has inspired us to go a mile further to deliver innovative solutions that boost our customers' sustainability goals.
