COMPANY PROFILE current peaks and average consumption. The result is optimised energy consumption at every stage of the tempering cycle, with smarter, more uniform heating of the glass sheets.“ As early as five years after purchasing a tempering furnace, energy costs can account for up to 55 per cent of the total investment,” explains Federico Mazzaroppi.“ And this figure rises to 77 per cent after 15 years.” In this example, we are talking about a medium-sized furnace operating on a single shift. With a machinery working two shifts and a further rise in energy costs, this proportion would be even higher. This is the daily reality for many companies operating in the glass industry.” So could focusing solely on saving money when purchasing the furnace prove to be a mistake?‘ Absolutely,’ continues the marketing manager at Mazzaroppi Engineering.‘ Because, whichever furnace is chosen, what really affects an investment of this kind is the energy cost paid month after month. An energy-efficient furnace is therefore essential to avoid ever-increasing costs.” Increasing the oven’ s efficiency also means minimising unproductive energy consumption. Mazzaroppi achieves this with technologies like M Start & Stop, which enables the oven to be completely switched off during periods of inactivity and reheated to the required temperature
Founded in 1958, Mazzaroppi Engineering is the only company to specialise in glass tempering. The company is firmly committed to making this process sustainable for the environment and businesses, a principle that has led to the development of the Energy Saving Approach. This design and production philosophy has resulted in machinery that consumes 70 per cent less energy than competing solutions. Mazzaroppi’ s proprietary technologies are designed to improve the results of the tempering process while optimising energy consumption. To guarantee this performance, all Mazzaroppi furnaces are manufactured using the finest certified European materials. This is why they have an average lifespan of over 30 years and retain a very high residual value even 10 years after purchase.
in just thirty minutes at the start of the next shift, virtually eliminating waste. Thanks to this technology, Mazzaroppi furnaces deliver energy savings of up to 70 per cent compared to others. This translates into consistent and significant financial savings when repeated day after day and year after year.
Looking to the future The Mazzaroppi range offers a
variety of solutions to suit different needs. From the TP Compact furnace, which is ideal for those with limited workspace who are looking for excellent tempering results, to the TP Advanced, which offers maximum performance while maintaining low energy consumption. All systems are optimised and incorporate the latest technological innovations from Mazzaroppi. There are also significant new developments on the horizon,

thanks to our constantly active R & D department.“ A focus on efficiency continues to drive the development of Mazzaroppi products,” says Federico Mazzaroppi.‘ In fact, we will shortly be launching a new range of furnaces to cover every production requirement, from medium-sized to jumbo models, with even lower energy consumption and even higher performance.’“ A Mazzaroppi furnace is designed to safeguard the operations of glassworks and companies of all sizes,’ continues,‘ ensuring autonomy and highlevel performance. But today, safety also means efficient energy consumption because you shouldn’ t have to halt production or constantly raise prices— risking the loss of customers— if energy bills keep rising.” For those wondering how to stop paying ever-higher energy bills for glass tempering, the answer is clear: Mazzaroppi has the solution.
