We make a difference

We're here to reshape global mass production and empower sustainable growth. We aim to challenge, disrupt and enlighten our industry. By reducing material usage and energy consumption and by helping our customers extend their product cycles, we contribute to a more sustainable world.

Total impact

Our technology enables a significant reduction of the CO2 footprint in manufacturing industries. By reducing material usage and energy consumptions our goal is to reduce the global CO2 emissions with 1%.

How it happens

CO2 impact estimate

Thermal window

A great potential

As a reference, a European thermal break supplier indicates volumes of 100 million meters/year. That means a conservative calculation on CO2 savings is:

  • 10 million m2 installed window saves 100 GWh/year
  • 100 GWh equals approx. 42 000 ton CO2/year

For the same volume the material savings would mean approximately 1.050 ton (equals approximately € 20 million) compared with conventional thermal break profile.

Material waste elimination

Solar panel

Cooling application

Substantial savings were made possible in design and production thanks to the z.trusion® technology. Manufacturing costs were reduced from approximately 33 €/mtr to approximately 4.5 €/mtr, including material.

  • 90% reduction of production cost
  • 100% elimination of material waste

Bumper beam

Potential of an optimized beam

If a weight saving of 3kg could be reached in a car, for 1 million cars with 3kg of weight-saving, a reduction of approximately 100 000 ton CO2 is achieved over all.
