Reduced #CO2 emissions
The benefits of using #Calumite to reduce CO2 emissions are two fold, with both direct savings through reducing process CO2 emissions and indirect savings through reduced emissions associated with fuel combustion. #GlassIndustry#Glass#GlassFactory
We have purchased a new specialised handheld printer a Handjet EBS-260. This will be used on all exported #Calumite to ensure clear bag markings and meet the various import/ customs regulations across the globe.
Over a six day period our dryer drum was replaced. This distributes our raw material to ensure an even & energy efficient drying process. The drum was prefabricated off site and the 9 metre, 6 tonne structure lifted into place. Throughout the outage customer supply was sustained.
Calumite Ltd has become a member of Glass Futures, the #Global Centre of Excellence for glass in research and development, innovation, and training.
Collaborating with Glass Futures, #Calumite Ltd can support the #glass industry move towards a sustainable, zero-carbon future.
