Increasing energy efficiency in Metal In Ltd.

Metal In ltd. was founded in 1985 with main activity manufacturing of metal products - statistical economic code C 25.99 "Manufacturing of other metal products, not else classified". At the beginning of its activity it successfully completed orders for IKEA. Metal In ltd. gradually increased its export, at present generating 80% of its production upon orders of companies in France, Holland, Italy, Germany and Austria. The enterprise produces metal components and mechanisms for furniture, sheet metal workings, metal articles and constructions, details for the hydraulic machine building, bike stands, turning and milling details, etc. Part of the company's increasing product portfolio are bike parking systems. After the beginning of manufacturing of this product in the year 2015, the company experienced a significant increase in energy consumption compared to the previous year of 2014. This is due to the fact that the available machines are not entirely appropriate for this production which results in energy losses and unability to increase production. For the purpose of increasing the energy efficiency in the enterprise, during the production of bike parking systems, the implementation of the following activities is intended with this project, laid down in the energy audit, approved with opinion № BG16RFOP-229/03.08.2016 by AUER: - Acquiring of CNC machine for laser cutting of tubular details (measure 1 in the energy audit) - 1 item - Introduction and certification of a system for energy consumption monitoring in accordance with ISO 50001 The implementation of the above mentioned measure will allow for a decrease in energy and other costs as well as the time required for the manufacturing of the product, as a result of which the enterprise will have the opportunity to increase significantly the manufacturing capacity of this product. In the process of realization of the project the appropriate measures for visualization and publicity will be taken.
