Presentation of the new
Advanced ZIPPE Batch and Cullet Preheater ABP®

May 4, 2011 was the day: Messrs. ZIPPE Industrieanlagen presented their most important technical innovation – the Preheater ABP® - to interested representatives of the international glass industry in Zagreb, Croatia.

Based on decades of experiences and continuous advancements we have now succeeded to present a new plant technology which allows to save energy up to 15 % during glass production by the energetical use of waste gases. Thus energy costs can be reduced significantly and also the emission of CO2 can be decreased correspondingly. Moreover the plant runs most reliably with a very low share of cullet in the batch, which is a novelty in the glass industry.

“It is our goal to combine economy and ecology”, says Dr. Bernd-Holger Zippe. “Due to the fact that we become more and more short of resources and also in the light of environmental protection, these are the topics of the future. With the help of this new technology we have succeeded in a further trendsetting step forward.”
