19th International Press Conference 2022

Sustainability in automation technology – more than a mega trend? Automation solutions may enable faster, more flexible and more cost-efficient production, but they also consume energy –whether to generate compressed air in pneumatic systems or to operate electric components. Festo supports its customers to make their automation as energy-efficient and CO₂-neutral as possible –with smart products and solutions. Customers can potentially save up to 60% on energy. Find here the press kit related to the 19th International Festo Press Conference.

Read press release

Algae are small climate savers. Even in their natural state they are extremely efficient photosynthesizers and absorb ten times more carbon dioxide (CO₂) than land plants. In bioreactors equipped with appropriate sensors, control technology and automation, the efficiency of algae can be increased to a hundred times that of land plants. This shows that they have a significant potential for a climate-neutral circular economy. With the PhotoBionicCell ...
