Innovating and optimising our manufacturing processes<\/h4>\n

To reduce our energy footprint, we plan to decarbonise our manufacturing processes via three levers:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Improve the energy performance of our facilities by optimising operation and training staff;<\/li>\n
  • Transform processes by gradually deploying proven techniques across our 17 manufacturing sites in Europe;<\/li>\n
  • Explore innovative manufacturing technologies and processes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n <\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_background” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” bg_color=”#e6f8f4″ scene_position=”center” bottom_padding=”5%” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” gradient_type=”default” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text text_direction=”default”]\n

    Jointly developing energies for the future<\/h4>\n

    In 2023, Edilians Group acquired Ceritherm, a French manufacturer of industrial kilns and expert in innovative thermal equipment. As an engineering company, Ceritherm has reinforced Edilians Group\u2019s technical expertise and capacity for innovation in decarbonising its manufacturing facilities. As a result, between October 2023 and November 2024 five decarbonisation projects were launched at three manufacturing sites in order to improve firing and drying processes.<\/p>\n[\/nectar_highlighted_text][\/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/2″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” column_padding_type=”default” gradient_type=”default”][carousel script=”simple_slider” simple_slider_sizing=”aspect_ratio” simple_slider_aspect_ratio=”1-1″ simple_slider_arrow_controls=”true” simple_slider_arrow_positioning=”overlapping” simple_slider_transition_type=”slide” simple_slider_wrap=”true” autorotate=”true” autorotate_type=”default” autorotation_speed=”0,5″][item simple_slider_bg_image_url=”5039″ simple_slider_bg_image_position=”default” simple_slider_overlay_strength=”0.3″ simple_slider_bg_image_loading=”default” id=”1757680987012-7″ tab_id=”1757680987013-7″ title=”\u00c9l\u00e9ment”][vc_column_text] [\/vc_column_text][\/item][item simple_slider_bg_image_url=”5043″ simple_slider_bg_image_position=”default” simple_slider_overlay_strength=”0.3″ simple_slider_bg_image_loading=”default” id=”1757680987056-5″ tab_id=”1757680987057-1″ title=”\u00c9l\u00e9ment”][vc_column_text] [\/vc_column_text][\/item][item simple_slider_bg_image_url=”5075″ simple_slider_bg_image_position=”default” simple_slider_overlay_strength=”0.3″ simple_slider_bg_image_loading=”default” id=”1757680987098-4″ tab_id=”1757680987099-1″ title=”\u00c9l\u00e9ment”][vc_column_text] [\/vc_column_text][\/item][item simple_slider_bg_image_url=”5047″ simple_slider_bg_image_position=”default” simple_slider_overlay_strength=”0.3″ simple_slider_bg_image_loading=”default” id=”1757680987134-7″ tab_id=”1757680987135-9″ title=”\u00c9l\u00e9ment”][vc_column_text] [\/vc_column_text][\/item][\/carousel][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”full_width_background” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”none” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overflow=”visible” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” gradient_type=”default” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” column_position=”default” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][nectar_single_testimonial testimonial_style=”small_modern” image=”4648″ color=”Default” quote=”“Ceritherm has developed relevant, pioneering technologies in which we believe.
