Sustainable Innovation: Driving Energy Efficiency in Pneumatics

Sustainability is no longer a ‘nice-to-have’—it’s a necessity. Businesses across the UK are facing increasing pressure to reduce their environmental impact while also whist seeking to reduce running costs. One of the most important yet often-overlooked areas for energy savings in manufacturing is compressed air systems (pneumatics), where inefficiencies can lead to significant waste.

‍

At Camozzi Automation UK, we are committed to helping businesses optimise their compressed air systems, reducing energy consumption while improving performance.

‍

This year, we have strengthened our sustainability efforts by achieving ISO 14001 environmental accreditation, reinforcing our focus on responsible resource management. But sustainability is more than just a certification—it’s a mindset that drives everything we do.

The Hidden Cost of Compressed Air Waste  

Compressed Air systems are integral to almost every manufacturing process, yet they are often one of the biggest energy drains on a facility. Shockingly, up to 35% of compressed air is wasted due to leaks, adding unnecessary costs and increasing a company’s carbon footprint. The old approach of prioritising performance over efficiency is no longer viable; the future of industrial automation lies in balancing power with sustainability.  

‍

This is where Camozzi Automation comes in. We support manufacturers by:  

‍

- Providing technical guidance on optimising pneumatic efficiency and reducing air leaks.  

- Delivering smart solutions, such as energy-efficient components and intelligent monitoring systems.  

- Assessing air usage to identify improvements, whether through small adjustments or complete system overhauls.
