Recovering heat from own operations
GARDENA production sites are recovering heat generated from their own operations. Facilities in Heuchlingen, Germany, and Vrbno in the Czech Republic reuse heat from compressors and cooling devices. Our Trinec plant in the Czech Republic has installed a flue gas heat exchanger that uses residual energy from the furnace and feeds it into an application for degreasing metals. These initiatives deliver an annual saving of approximately 1,800 MWh of energy or 230 tonnes CO₂ emissions, depending on production activities.
