Summer can come: With a new heat pump, System Logistics is getting ready for the hot days ahead and is adapting to climate change in two ways at once.
As much as we welcome the beginning of spring, rising temperatures also place a strain on many people. Our Italian subsidiary System Logistics has therefore taken targeted measures to protect its employees from the effects of climate change. To do so, the company invested in a new heat pump. With a cooling capacity of 540 kilowatts it ensures pleasant working temperatures across the entire production and storage areas even on the hottest days of the year. During the day the system draws the electricity it needs from the company’s own photovoltaic installation.
The heat pump was installed and commissioned last year. Although its first summer operation still lies ahead, it has already made a measurable contribution to reducing emissions. This is because the same system is used to heat both the production area and the office spaces during the colder months. As a result it reduced the natural gas consumption previously required for this purpose to zero in the 2025/26 winter season.
