Labotek's External Heat Recovery (EHR) system represents the pinnacle of energy efficiency in plastic processing.
Traditional drying systems vent hot air into the atmosphere, wasting valuable energy. Labotek's EHR system captures this thermal energy and re-routes it to preheat the incoming process air or for other heating requirements within the factory.
Drastically reduced electricity bills ensure a return on investment typically within 12 months.
