Esco Goes Green
As part of our ESG, Esco has been a green company since 1978. It has been manufacturing environmentally-friendly products and continues to improve it using energy-efficient technology.
What we do to make our products more efficient and GREENER?
Esco was the first company to utilize the German-made ebm-papst® rotor/motor system in laminar flow products. These motors were selected for energy efficiency, compact design, and flat profile. The complete integrated system assembly optimizes motor cooling, reducing energy consumption and extends the motor life.
Esco also uses high-pack, low resistant ULPA filters in our laminar flow products. The low resistance 99.999% efficient filters, combined with the ebm-papst® rotor/motor systems, allows Esco to provide better reserve capacity which leads to longer filter life and lower lifetime cost of the product.
How will we continue to embrace GREEN?
Environment-friendly technology
Esco incorporates the latest proven technologically advanced components available. One in every four of Esco's employees is involved in Research and Development and are evaluating new components or designs for better efficiency. Whenever a new technology is available, Esco redesigns technology into our new products that will use lesser energy.
Environment-friendly operations
All Esco companies worldwide are continually reminded to be environmentally friendly in day-to-day operations. Employees are encouraged to practice 5S regularly, ensure proper waste disposal, and save energy.
