EBNER and Waelzholz set new standards with ECOMODE
The decades of cooperation between EBNER and C.D. Waelzholz GmbH & Co. KG represent one of the most successful partnerships in the field of heat treatment technology. Over the years, what began as a classic customer/supplier relationship has developed into a close technological collaboration that serves as a prime example of future-oriented innovation in an industrial context.
Zero-emission heat treatment
Decarbonizing the steel industry is essential – especially energy-intensive processes like heat treatment. In this interview, Sascha Eppensteiner explains how emission-free technologies such as electric direct heating and smart heat recovery systems, exemplified by the GREENBAFx®, contribute to climate-neutral production while remaining economically viable.
From concept to reality: the development of GREENBAFx®
Sustainability is no longer a trend – it’s shaping industrial innovation. With the GREENBAFx®, EBNER has developed an emission-free, energy-efficient solution that proves ecology and economy can go hand in hand. In this interview, Sascha Eppensteiner shares insights into the idea, technological challenges, and the future of green industrial processes.
