We asked Giulio , head of R & D at Mappi , how to achieve this goal . “ Less energy-intensive ’ does not always mean ‘ more savings ’. We need to think differently . We are working to get more power immediately and where it is needed , optimising and improving production times while reducing energy consumption overall . Our answer to these challenges translates into a concept that we have called ‘ Double Top ’, that is the top of speed , the top of performance .”

ability to slash energy consumption without affecting the performance and quality of the finished product . It is often thought that lower energy consumption is synonymous with savings , but this is not always the case . “ We want to show that it is possible to reverse this reasoning ” Giulio continues . “ By enhancing performance at critical moments of the process we can reduce overall consumption . In other words , we want to use energy only when and where it is really needed , maximising operational efficiency . Mappi is synonymous with innovation , quality and sustainability , we offer our customers tools that not only improve the quality of tempered glass , but also reduce processing times . We are experts in keeping consumption down in the long term because we focus on performance : we deliver maximum power only when and where it is needed .”
