Optima machines have always been about sustainability, for example in terms of the machines' service life, process accuracy, and utilization of packaging materials, to name just a few factors. Today, we are going further still.
At Optima, we get right down to the nitty-gritty. We deal with issues like - What future-proof carbon -optimized materials can we use for our machines? Which partners can we source them from and what technology is used to manufacture them? What does recyclable machine design entail, and where are the opportunities to make use of recyclates? We thoroughly examine every single aspect of mechanical and system engineering, identify potential savings and implement, them. That's what sustainable technology is for us.

Optima machines and systems have always been regarded as particularly efficient. Now we consistently check every single detail, from the raw materials used to the conditions in which they are used by our customers on their sites. That's how 'We care for tomorrow‘ is lived at Optima.
Our digital services enable us to achieve maximum plant availability with optimized maintenance costs. It's what we call Reliability-Based Maintenance. This means among other things that the service life of wear and spare parts can be maximized. Rebuilding and overhaul programs mean that the equipment can be adapted to meet market needs, without having to be completely replaced.
Correct recycling of machinery makes a major contribution to resource conservation. Therefore, as a manufacturer, we offer the option of ending the life cycle of the machine sustainably upon request and returning the individual parts to the material flows professionally – for the sake of the environment.

On request, we can determine the product carbon footprint (PCF) of your project, analyze it and reduce it using sustainable technologies. With a positive impact on your carbon footprint and the operating costs of the plant.
As regards the manufacturing phase, we examine all of the carbonemissions, from the mining of the raw materials to the machine that is ready to ship. The utilization phase begins when the machine is shipped and ends when it is recycled. During this phase, it also depends on the electric power mix used for manufacturing, the way in which the process media are produced, and the system's operating mode.
To ensure maximum transparency, the method of calculating the PCF of our machines has been audited by TÜV SÜD in accordance with ISO 14067.
Working together with you, we also analyze existing machines' carbon -footprint and assist you with a wide range of optimization measures.
