SUSTAINABILITY HAS A FUTURE
at MAINCOR
The issue of energy supply is of paramount importance to MAINCOR. As a manufacturer in the plastics industry, MAINCOR requires around eleven million kilowatt-hours of electricity annually for its production. The issue of in-house electricity generation has therefore been on the agenda for years. Various rooftop photovoltaic systems and our own ground-mounted solar power station at the Knetzgau site enable us to meet part of our electricity requirements directly on site using solar energy.
As a result, MAINCOR was able to meet 28 per cent of its electricity requirements itself in 2025. When solar power generation is sufficiently high, our systems can, at times, fully meet the site’s ongoing electricity requirements.
These actions make the company fit for the future.
The sparing use of resources, innovations and the conversion of value chains are of central importance in order to harmonise environmental protection and economic development. It is not only the company that should benefit, but also the citizens of the Knetzgau community.
MAINCOR is already in talks with several companies that deal with the topic of storage.
For Dieter Pfister, this is another great challenge that he would like to tackle with MAINCOR: “We see ourselves as pioneers and are ready to break new ground.”
