In 2019, the management of the HUBER+SUHNER production site in Tczew, Poland, launched a project with the aim of significantly reducing the consumption of heating oil in the over 10 000-square-metre factory building 26. As a first step, the project team used a ther- mographic camera to investigate where the building was losing particularly large amounts of heat. This analysis suggested a total of five measures: The costs associated with thes entered in the investment bu mented gradually in 2019 an affecting ongoing operations only started operating after 2020–2021 winter heating perio Although the measures ha realised in the months of Janu heating oil consumption was compared to the previous ye sponds to CO2 emissions of abo is around 5 % of the global CO2 by HUBER+SUHNER through he 1.insulation of 3 000 square metres of facade area, 2. replacement of the heating oil stove with a new one in a higher energy efficiency class, 3. replacement of 42 windows, 4.installing special ceiling fans (air destratifiers) to move warm air from the hall ceiling to the floor or to keep it there in order to increase the temperature on the ground and at the same time reduce heat loss through the roof, and 5.installation of a heat pump to supply the building with hot water outside the heating season.
