Our Newest Bio-Mass Hot Water Generator Glove production requires applications that involve heat, which is traditionally created with fossil-fueled generators, contributing to GHG emissions.
Using one of today’s most advanced combustion technology systems, this new bio-mass hot water generator in Bangkok will fuel a significant portion of the plant expansion.
The focus on energy is driven by our goal to reduce GHG emissions and establish an energy efficient operation which will contribute to lowering our operating costs as well as lessening our carbon footprint.
Our energy reduction program is driven by these strategies: 1.
Technologies and CapEx – we continue to invest in new technologies which have higher energy efficiency.
Hence, focus in recent years has been to provide real time measurement of energy use in our manufacturing operations.

In FYglobally and will continue to train our engineers to improve their competency.
and Yield (FPY) will continue to deliver greater energy efficiencies in our manufacturing processes.
Energy reduction is becoming more and more critical going forward as we shift our products from natural rubber to synthetics and to higher value products, which typically require a higher energy footprint to produce.
Thus, Ansell will continue its focus on greater energy reduction programs.

Our Perspective Each manufacturing location will be tasked with conducting detailed waste mapping and material balances.
This will assist them in identifying the sources of generation, which will then encourage the teams to innovate by Refusing and Reducing or seek opportunities to Reuse in the process.
We will encourage teams to seek out opportunities to divert the remaining waste from landfills by applying the principles of the solid waste management hierarchy with compliance to the regulatory frameworks applicable at each location.
As our teams internally confirm that they have achieved this ambitious target, we will partner with an external verification body to certify that they are a Zero Waste to Landfill facility.
At Ansell, we understand the critical importance of health and safety to our customers, and the integral role that our products play in keeping their workers safe.
