Becoming an industry pioneer with sustainability
With a 2.5 MW photovoltaic system and the planned use of two wind turbines with an output of 4.0 MW, we at Richter Aluminium are setting new standards in the industry. Through recycling and efficient material cycles, supported by our state-of-the-art hybrid furnace for COâ‚‚ and energy savings, we are underlining our pioneering role and consistently pursuing our corporate strategy for sustainable and COâ‚‚-free production by 2030.
Revolutionary sustainability in aluminum processing: Z.P.E. system
The introduction of the Z.P.E. (Zero Pollution Energy) system marks a milestone in the sustainability of aluminum extrusion. The magnetic field heats the aluminum billet efficiently and with minimal energy consumption. In addition, the billet can be precisely tempered over its entire length to ensure a uniform temperature during the extrusion process. With an impressive energy efficiency of over 82% and a 50% reduction in COâ‚‚ emissions compared to conventional systems, the Z.P.E. system not only offers significant energy savings, but also makes a considerable contribution to environmental protection.
2.5 MW – Energy generation from our PV system
We rely on renewable energy and are taking the green path to a sustainable future. We effectively use the unused space on our large roofs to feed this sustainably generated electricity into our system. This can cover the entire office and production areas.
4.0 MW – Energy generation
through two planned wind turbines
The promotion of renewable energies is an essential part of our vision for a sustainable future. The planned installation of two wind turbines with a total capacity of 4.0 MW will enable us to generate electricity efficiently. This environmentally friendly energy will help to cover our energy needs and make an important contribution to environmental protection.
Sustainability:
Recyclable material cycle
Our mission is to create a closed material cycle for aluminum based on sustainability and environmental protection. By recycling and reusing aluminum, we can conserve valuable resources and reduce the environmental impact. Thanks to state-of-the-art melting processes, the cycle is closed so that the valuable material can be used again and again in new products.
