50,000kWh PER ANNUM ELECTRICITY SAVING

Our new variable speed compressor uses 80% less energy than the fixed speed compressor it replaced.

The savings in CO2 per year equate to taking 12 average family cars of the road.

The company recently undertook a study of the compressed air demand at our Workshops in Cheshire assisted by WG Search Ltd. The study revealed typical air demand at the facility was characterised by short bursts of high demand and long periods of low or no demand, a pattern ideal for variable speed compressor technology.

The payback for the project is less than two years.

Dave Finn, Plant Manager at D Wardle (Plant) commented:

"The compressor project came about as part of our continuous improvement program for environmental performance. It's a good example of how our ISO14001 accreditation delivers tangible benefits both to the environment and our bottom line."
