mk North America is Going Solar: A Brighter, More Sustainable Future
Posted on by Christer Osterling
At mk North America, we’ve always been committed to innovation—not just in our conveyor and automation solutions but also in how we operate as a business. That’s why we’re thrilled to announce a major step forward in sustainability: the installation of a 296.48 kW solar power system at our headquarters in Bloomfield, CT.
Investing in Clean Energy
Sustainability is more than just a buzzword at mk North America; it’s a core value. By transitioning to solar energy, we’re significantly reducing our carbon footprint while ensuring that the conveyor systems we manufacture are built with clean, renewable power. Our new 296.48 kW system will help power our production lines, machinery, and operations, reinforcing our dedication to both efficiency and environmental responsibility.
The Impact of Solar Power
The benefits of this solar installation extend beyond cost savings. Here’s what this system means for mk North America and our customers:
- Reduced Environmental Impact: By harnessing the sun’s power, we cut down on greenhouse gas emissions and contribute to a greener supply chain for conveyor technology.
- Energy Independence: With a dedicated solar system, we’re less dependent on external energy providers, giving us more control over the power that drives our conveyor solutions and automation systems.
- Long-Term Savings: Solar energy reduces electricity costs, allowing us to reinvest those savings into research, development, and innovative conveyor system enhancements.
Leading by Example
As a leader in conveyor technology and automation, we believe in setting the standard for sustainability in manufacturing. Our shift to solar energy underscores our commitment to responsible business practices and ensures that the conveyors we design, engineer, and build are part of a more sustainable future.
We’re excited about the road ahead and look forward to seeing the positive impact this solar initiative will have on our company, customers, and the broader manufacturing community. Stay tuned for updates on our energy savings and green manufacturing efforts!
