Manitowoc’s Redline Plastics has been honored as one of 10 Wisconsin businesses to receive a 2023 Energy Efficiency Excellence Award from Focus on Energy.
This organization highlights companies that invest in projects to reduce energy consumption in the state of Wisconsin.
Redline Plastics has completed several energy-saving projects while building its new facility.
The manufacturing process creates significant thermal energy, so the company found creative ways to make it more efficient from the start.
Redline Plastic’s investment in LED lighting saved enough energy to power 43 homes for an entire year.
The heat from their rotational molding production ovens is also recycled to heat the facility in the winter months.
Jeff Matzke, the Key accounts manager for Manitowoc Public Utilities nominated Redline Plastics for the award, noting “It’s obvious that they’re a unique, innovative company that has taken a lot of time to make a state-of-the-art facility.”
