To maintain our source of life for future generations, we have to combine economic and ecological thought and action. Grenzebach’s motto as an internationally operating company: Think globally, act regionally. With respect to protecting our environment and climate, we do more than what’s required by law.
With the energy from all solar panels installed by Grenzebach around the globe, we could:
The friction stir welding (FSW) offers better environmental performance compared to other welding methods. No need for welding wire, protective gas and complex exhaust air systems. The technology is low in vibration, noise and emission and does not create optical radiation.
Grenzebach continuously increases the performance and energy efficiency of its high-tech equipment, such as the cutting and stacking part of float glass lines, the so-called "Cold End". Since the mid-70’s, electric power has been reduced by 25%, while compressed air consumption has been reduced by a quarter.
Production technology from Grenzebach produces all building materials required to put together an energy efficient and modern house. Wood chips and saw waste are used to produce high-quality and environmentally friendly materials to go into the insulation of buildings. Yesterday's newspaper will become the cellulose insulating material applied on-site with blowing machines.
