Benchmark interne chez LPC Belgium


In order to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, an efficient use and conservation of energy is a necessity. For that reason, the LPC duffel mill has participated over the last years in an “energy benchmark program” for all the facilities worldwide of the group to which the mill belonged until mid 2007 (Kimberly Clark).
In essence, each manufacturing facility had to achieve a facility-specific world-class energy benchmark, which had to be obtained within a given timeframe.
The best performing facility, per technology and within the group, was designated as the “energy benchmark”.
Periodically, internal audits monitored the progress and delivered the necessary solutions to achieve the target. Every five years, the energy benchmarks were tightened whereby a continuous reduction in greenhouse gas emissions was achieved.
