Our Commitment to Customers
Our goal is to help our customers succeed – our success is dependent on theirs. Helping our customers by optimizing the efficiency of their processes generates a triple “green” bottom-line effect:
- Economic improvement processes will reduce costs and optimize operations
- Environmental processes reduce emissions, wastes and energy consumption
- Corporate social responsibility to uphold ethical practices and standards
We are committed to meeting and exceeding all applicable environmental laws and regulations for ourselves and for our customers.
NORPAC is a BC Hydro approved Power Smart Alliance Partner. Utilizing Opportunity Mapping, substantial gains are realized through increased process productivity, thereby extending the life-cycle of the products and reducing consumption of natural gas or electricity. This results in significant cost savings to ensure long-term viability of the operation, with the added benefit of using the gains to enable the customer to further refocus on green initiatives.
In a recent Automation World magazine article entitled “Stepping Up to Green – It’s Good Business,” one of NORPAC’s customers stated “we found we could increase production by about 10 percent while still cutting the energy usage rate”. These impressive results were achieved after NORPAC conducted an energy audit, resulting in a project to implement model predictive control on the existing DeltaV control system. Further efficiencies were achieved by undertaking a check and calibration of all the instrumentation. For details on this and other Quantifiable Environmental Results (QER’s), please click here.
