BRÜCKNER & INTERCARPET collaborate for CO₂-neutralized carpet manufacturing
- BRÜCKNER will be showcasing its innovations at ITMA ASIA + CITME 2024, at booth H6-D10
Even a few years ago when eliminating CO2 emissions was a dream to achieve for many now with the significant partnership work between BRÜCKNER (A German mid-level industry widely known for its innovative, energy-efficient textile finishing machinery) and INTERCARPET has made that future come to the present. INTERCARPET a Dutch textile plants floor covering producer has made its first step on the journey of CO2 neutralization and sustainability. A forward-thinking carpet manufacturing industry always thrives on a sustainability approach.
This innovative duo has successfully offered the possibility of CO2-neutralized production of tufting carpets. BRÜCKNER’s modern stenter and carpet dryer are already being used in the finishing floor of the INTERCARPET industry. BRÜCKNER’s stenter machine comes with a non-lubricated ball-bearing chain and a DUO-THERM oven technology that generates heat. Here the oven is heated by green electricity as it is produced through renewable resources. As heat is being generated by electricity no carbon is emitted by this process which is a remarkable result. It is worth noting that other devices such as exhaust fans, drivers, and transport systems associated with fabric transportation during production, use less amount of energy. All these are attached to energy-efficient motors. This signifies their commitment to a sustainable approach. Low power consumption, efficient operation, and heating without burning fuels or generating CO2 are some of the key features that have already brought considerable attention to global sustainable textiles.
This effective cooperation is not only focusing on CO2 reduction while producing but also putting up their all-possible effort to ensure the recyclability of the end products. In a time when the term circularity is getting wide importance in every sector, textile is a kind of an industry where recyclability and circularity are not generally being practiced. Besides we see the large quantity of C02 footprint is causing the global temperature to rise and putting environmentally vulnerable countries on edge. So considering the overall aspect, BRÜCKNER’s modern textile finishing technologies are opening the door to CO2 neutralization-based textile production.
