CASTELLÓ. Commitment to efficient production is a priority at Talleres Cortés, especially in the context of the energy crisis. That is why the factory in l’Alcora has started installing solar panels to harness clean energy.
The objective of self-consumption and respect for the ecosystem are key in the roadmap of a company dedicated to machinery for the ceramic industry, which has been adapting to new challenges since its origins. In this case, the current situation requires seeking answers to the difficulties that arise along the way, which translate into an evident increase in energy prices and a planet that needs alternatives to reckless consumption.
Talleres Cortés does not escape these pretensions, and in 2021 it started the work to install solar panels in its factory, a fact that will have a direct impact on the electricity bill of the company, both directly and in the future. "Reducing costs is the only alternative for a company so that the increase in the price of raw materials and energy does not affect the customer's pocket," explain representatives from the company.
His is an example for so many tile factories and their auxiliary industries that there is no turning back, and it represents a real solution to a more than evident problem.
Being more efficient means being more productive and, therefore, guaranteeing the growth and continuation of a consolidated and increasing workforce since it started operating in 1951. Challenges have evolved, positioning the company as a leader in the manufacturing of molds and relief designs for inkjet systems, without neglecting the technical and after-sales service so valued by clients.
Today those opportunities lie in knowing how to better leverage the energy market, which is constantly tense, and aspire to self-consumption as a production model. “In a land that enjoys sunshine for more than two-thirds of the year, we cannot waste the opportunity to capitalize on this strength. Industry must be a pioneer not only in professionalism and advanced machinery, but also in reinventing its models,” they state. Talleres Cortés achieves this with this decisive change that will mark the future of its production.
