Highlights 2025 Sustainability 28 – 29 Joint success Thanks to the joint partnership between Gessner and Festo, further collaborative steps were taken after the audit to reduce energy consumption, such as a selection of recommendations for suitable compressors. As for the energy expert Niederhuber, downstream leakage detection also led to a surprising discovery: “We wouldn’t have thought that the static consumption of our positioners was in the mid five-digit range.” As a result, all positioners were systematically replaced with more energy-efficient models. “The Festo Energy Saving Services have definitely been worthwhile for us. The transparency, the new ideas, and the projects that they resulted in have been a huge benefit to us.” With the help of Festo Energy Saving Services, Gessner has been able to make substantial savings on energy costs, while at the same time increasing production stability and achieving the environmental protection targets it has set itself. > www.festo.com/ess/audit As part of a leakage detection program from Festo that took several days and during which the problem was systematically rectified, Gessner was able to save 30,000 euros per year in compressed air costs at its plant. Working in partnership: From the joint inspection of the systems to the analysis and evaluation.
