As part of an expansion strategy, ultra.air GmbH recently acquired Opti-Flow – an independent energy consultancy with a strong presence in the UK.
David Howells, ultra.air Group Ltd UK Managing Director said We are elighted to bring ultra.air to the UK. This is an exciting development for the Company that allows us to merge the current energy competencies and market experience we have created in the UK as Opti-Flow, with an established European-wide service and product portfolio.
As many users will be aware, energy accounts for almost 80 percent of the total lifecycle cost of a compressor. We can reduce this energy cost by up to 40 percent using systematic cost reduction and improvement measures which ultimately help compressed air users maximise their energy savings potential. Through the unique ultra.air Group consultation service, energy saving solutions for the entire compressed air supply chain can be generated. Across Europe we have already assisted many blue chip companies in securing compressed air energy savings, including Ford and Siemens.
Over the past three years alone, we have seen the UK manufacturing industry being forced to accept price increases of almost 300 percent! Along with our corporate partner E.ON, the ultra.air Group is striving to counteract this trend.
Ultra.air Group Ltd serves the length and breadth of the UK from a number of sites throughout the country.
