Portugal is the cork world champion: with the largest acreage under cork oaks, the Portuguese are also the largest cork exporters worldwide. Although cork itself is light, it is all the more voluminous if it is packaged inefficiently. In order to save energy and CO₂ emissions during transport, the ESI Group developed a system for packaging corks that requires 30 per cent less packaging volume and does without plastic. On board: automation technology from Festo.

Operating costs for pneumatic equipment can be reduced by up to 60% if system operators put into practice the results and analyses of the Compressed Air Energy Efficiency Audit GFAA by Festo. Energy efficiency experts from Festo use an integrated approach to analyse the entire compressed air system, from the compressor to the application, and recommend measures to reduce energy consumption. Climate protection is also included in the service, since the cost and energy savings naturally result in lower CO2 emissions and higher productivity.
