Plastic injection molding company budgets better with ECNG expertise
Background: With five manufacturing facilities in Canada and 500+ employees, ITML uses over 11Million KWH of electricity a year recycling and molding plastic to make millions of flower pots for North American gardeners.
Problem: Manufacturing a low cost product, ITML needed stability in their electrical pricing so that they could stick to their tight budgeting. They chose ECNG as their strategic energy management partner because of ECNG’s expertise with similar industries.
Solution: An examination of peak vs. non-peak consumption patterns allowed a team of our senior engineers to create a better buying model for ITML. Using ECNG’s proprietary process, LIBERATOR™ they worked out an electrical best-buy strategy for ITML.
Results: Better budgeting and forecasting means that green-thumbed North Americans will continue to be supplied with low priced, high quality flower pots. Tighter cost controls are being forced on many manufacturers by large retailers and foreign competition. More and more of these manufacturing companies are turning to ECNG’s long experience and expertise with energy purchasing to help them manage their electricity costs.
