The book presents about 100 current examples of how energy and
materials can be saved in manufacturing companies. They serve to
show which measures can be used in modern companies to exploit the
potential for resource efficiency. The book is aimed at
practitioners in companies and consulting firms, but is also
suitable for the university sector as a practical introduction to
the topic of resource efficiency. The materials used account for
almost 43 percent of the costs of an average industrial company in
Germany. Personnel costs, on the other hand, are only 22 percent,
while energy costs are as low as 2 percent. If a company wants to
save costs, above all it must consider the use of materials and
produce in a resource-efficient manner. This simultaneously
relieves the environment and reduces dependence on scarce raw
materials. The implementation of resource efficiency is not easy.
There are indeed numerous starting points in production, often in
process innovations or in product development. However, only a few
companies publish their measures and savings potentials. In
practice, this means that there are often no learning examples in
practice, but some of them are explicitly listed in this work. As
you can see, resource efficiency in production and products can
also be seen as a success factor for many companies. In the project
100 Pioneers in Efficient Resource Management, committed companies
from Baden-Wuerttemberg are showing their solutions. The project
was carried out by a competent team from the Pforzheim University
and the State Agency for Environmental Technology. Leading trade
associations in Baden-Wurttemberg have supported it.
