✅ More than 30 tonnes less CO₂ emissions!

♻️ Through continuous process optimisation, the partial replacement of natural gas with biogas, and more efficient utilisation of our curing oven, we have reduced the CO₂ emissions of our machining and powder-painting facilities by more than 30 tonnes over the past few years.

💡 This is one example of how we continuously improve the sustainability of our manufacturing operations through both everyday actions and long-term investments.

🙏 Of course, our work is far from complete. We continue to actively pursue new ways to reduce our emissions even further.

♻️ Sustainability improvements are built into everything we do, from daily process optimisation to long-term investments in more sustainable technologies.

📊 At our production facilities in Helsinki, continuous improvements in our painting processes and the adoption of more efficient painting methods have enabled us to reduce coating powder consumption and reuse residues without compromising paint quality or equipment performance. As a result, we have cut waste coating powder by 50%.

Our summer trainee Viivi helped cut water consumption in our painting facility by 50%! 💧

At Planmeca, offering meaningful opportunities for young people at different stages of their careers is an important part of our social responsibility efforts. This summer, we welcomed 90 summer interns to our headquarters in Helsinki, and once again, they brought fresh perspectives, new ideas and valuable expertise to our teams.

One of them was Viivi, who studies industrial engineering at LUT University and has a background in chemistry from Aalto University. During her summer at Planmeca, she led a project focused on reducing water consumption in our painting facility.

Viivi investigated opportunities for process optimisation and water reuse across different stages of the painting line. Through these efforts, Viivi succeeded in cutting water consumption by half during the test phase, according to data from the automated water consumption monitoring system now integrated into the production line. As more data becomes available over the next year, we will be able to determine whether the overall reduction is even greater.

We are proud to work with such talented young professionals and grateful for Viivi's outstanding contribution. Thank you, Viivi, and well done! 👏
