ebm-papst wins Energy Efficiency Award 2009
At the Hannover Messe 2009, ebm-papst was distinguished with the Energy Efficiency Award 2009. With the new plant in Mulfingen-Hollenbach, an energy-efficient solution was implemented that covers the entire heat requirement of the plant premises using existing heat loads. The premises are heated entirely using the heat given off from production. In selecting the components, attention was given to choosing state-of-the-art, energy-efficient technologies. This enabled the energy costs to be reduced by 91 percent.
ebm-papst is a landmark in the Land of Ideas
ebm-papst is a 2009 landmark in the Germany-wide competition "365 Landmarks in the Land of Ideas". The initiative was called into being on the occasion of the 2006 Football World Cup and pursues the objective of highlighting the strengths of Germany as a business location. The HyBlade® fan series from ebm-papst received an award as an innovative product. In addition to low power consumption, this newest product development, consisting of plastic blades with inserted aluminium reinforcement, also has the advantage of noise reduction. The awards ceremony will take place on 16 June 2009 in the new assembly plant in Hollenbach.
