Edmund Optics relies on renewable energies in Akita and Mainz
This measure reduces indirect greenhouse gas emissions by 25 percent through the use of renewable electricity
Edmund Optics has converted its manufacturing facilities in Akita (Japan) and Mainz (Germany) to 100% renewable energy. This measure is an important step in the company's global sustainability strategy and reduces indirect greenhouse gas emissions from the use of renewable electricity by 25%.
Akita specializes in precision optics, while Mainz processes polarization optics and colored glass from Schott. The Akita site now sources hydroelectric power, and Mainz uses a solar energy system and green electricity tariffs. This transition highlights Edmund Optics' commitment to sustainable manufacturing and reducing its environmental footprint. The company continues to work on energy efficiency and the use of renewable energies at all its global sites, maintaining the quality of its production and encouraging other companies to take similar initiatives.
