  • Plastic materials are pressed into cubes and sent to reuse facility.
  • Wooden bearers and pallets are crushed and used for heating pellets manufacturing or some pallets are reused in production.

Emissions

AS Nett uses in aspiration system a filter technology, which returns 100% of the warm air into the factory. Therefore less heating energy is needed from the boiler and the CO2 amount from wood burning is reduced. AS Nett obtains emission permission from Estonian Environmental Board.

As heating material there is used in AS Nett only fast regenerating natural resource – wood.

Energy Savings

AS Nett uses in production operations the most energy saving technologies available:

  • In aspiration system is used under-pressure filter, which means the fans are working with lower work-load and use less energy, than in over-pressure filter systems,
  • Shrink-packing thermo tunnel is equipped with an eco-therm addition, which reduces the lost heat-energy amount during work process. The remaining minimized loss of heat energy is used for heating the production halls,
  • Heat from the compressors cooling system is used for heating of production halls,
  • In compressed air systems are applied regular checks to remove any possible leaks and to achieve better energy use.

Wastes

All wastes occurring during operation of AS Nett factory will be reused:

  • All wooden wastes (sawdust and defected components) are reused for heating pellets,
  • All paper and plastic wastes are recycled.
