Sustainability initiatives

Our commitment to sustainability

At ABN Cleanroom Technology, we recognize our responsibility to provide sustainable and energy-efficient solutions while complying with the requirements of ISO9001:2015. We are committed to continuously improving our environmental performance and contributing to a more sustainable future. We acknowledge the necessity of contributing to solutions for climate change and the transition to sustainable energy.

The management of ABN Cleanroom Technology is responsible for drafting, implementing and monitoring these current and future initiatives regarding climate change and the energy transition. All employees contribute by actively participating in energy and climate initiatives. With our initiatives, we aim not only to meet our own sustainability goals but also to set an example in our industry.

Our current initiatives

Energy-saving cleanroom solutions

Our patented VIX concept helps significantly reduce our customers’ energy consumption. Cleanrooms operating under the VIX algorithms use up to 70% less energy. This way, we actively contribute to reducing the energy consumption of cleanrooms for our clients.

Transition to environmentally friendly refrigerants, such as CO₂

By switching to environmentally friendly refrigerants like CO₂, we reduce the impact of cooling technologies on the climate. This change not only supports the energy transition but also helps us comply with stricter environmental regulations.

Building PFAS-free cleanrooms

By focusing on the construction of PFAS-free cleanrooms, we position ourselves as an innovative and future-oriented player in the cleanroom market. We contribute to climate protection by avoiding the use of environmentally harmful substances and supporting customers in achieving their sustainability goals.

Sustainable vehicle fleet

We are transitioning from fuel-powered vehicles to a hybrid and fully electric fleet. This is a crucial step in significantly reducing our direct CO₂ emissions.

Charging infrastructure

The installation of charging stations promotes the transition to electric vehicles, which emit less CO₂ than traditional fuel-powered vehicles. By implementing charging stations, we reinforce our image as an environmentally conscious company that actively promotes sustainability.

Solar energy

Our offices use solar panels to cover a significant portion of our energy needs with renewable energy sources. This reduces our dependence on fossil fuels and actively supports the energy transition.

How we succeed

By integrating three key principles –100% fossil-free, 100% pre-engineered and 100% cost-efficient– we are leading a transformative shift towards greener and more economical cleanroom solutions. Our solutions provide a fast-track to emission reduction, while managing total investment and cost of operation parameters.

Fossil-free

The adoption of 100% fossil-free technologies stands as a cornerstone in achieving sustainability goals. Cleanroom facilities are transitioning away from traditional energy sources towards renewable alternatives. This shift not only reduces greenhouse gas emissions but also ensures a reliable and uninterrupted power supply, bolstering the resilience of cleanroom operations.

Pre-engineered

The implementation of 100% pre-engineered systems streamlines the construction process while minimizing waste and resource consumption. Pre-engineered cleanroom modules facilitate rapid assembly on-site, reducing construction timelines and associated costs. These solutions also offer scalability, enabling cleanroom facilities to adapt to evolving demands with ease while maintaining operational efficiency.

Cost-efficient

The emphasis on 100% cost-efficient strategies underscores the economic viability of sustainable practices within the cleanroom sector. Through innovative design and efficient resource utilization, businesses can achieve significant cost savings over the lifecycle of cleanroom facilities. Additionally, investments in sustainable technologies often yield long-term benefits, such as reduced energy bills and enhanced brand reputation.
