At FB Ketju, sustainability is important to us. We have developed an innovative Ecosaving calculation tool that allows us to demonstrate to our customers the reduction in carbon emissions when they use a quality chain in their own process. The factors that affect emissions during the life cycle of a chain include for example the raw materials used and the transport freight. Our chains are made from European raw materials, which, as high-quality materials, contribute to extending the life of the chain.
Ecosaving is a tool for ecological and economic savings: reduced CO2 emissions and reduced water and energy consumption. According to a sample calculation commissioned by a third party, one chain reduced CO2 emissions by almost 20 tonnes, equivalent to almost 30 000 litres of clean water.
The overall life-cycle costs of the chain will decrease as its lifetime increases. Savings also come from reduced maintenance and installation times.
