Conserving resources, optimising processes and taking responsibility
At KASTO, sustainability starts with our own operations and extends to the solutions we develop for you. With durable sawing technology, energy-efficient storage systems and intelligent software, we help you make better use of energy and materials, reduce operating costs and conserve resources for the long term. We also invest in sustainable technologies and resource-efficient infrastructure, taking responsibility for people and the environment.
Improving energy efficiency across our operations
At KASTO, we are committed to using energy responsibly in our own operations. We continuously invest in upgrading our infrastructure to improve efficiency. Energy-efficient infrared heaters are replacing oil-fired heating systems in our production halls, while a modern heat pump supplies heating to our office building. New compressors reduce energy consumption in manufacturing, and a more efficient storage system cuts electricity use in our data centre. Step by step, these improvements help us reduce energy consumption and lower our operating costs.
Long-lasting machines help conserve resources
The longer a machine operates reliably, the better use we make of the resources invested in it. That's why KASTO designs sawing machines and storage systems to stand the test of time. Regular servicing, repairs and targeted retrofits help keep existing equipment running cost-effectively for many years while adapting it to changing requirements. Our commitment to durability is reflected in KASTO saws that are still in daily operation after more than 40 years.
Save resources with intelligent sawing and storage technology
Lower energy consumption, less material waste and more efficient operations: In metalworking and storage logistics, sustainability and cost efficiency go hand in hand. KASTO develops innovative technologies and digital solutions that help you identify savings opportunities, make better use of resources and optimise your processes for the long term.
Recover energy and reduce electricity costs
KASTOenergysave captures excess kinetic energy from storage and retrieval machines, stores it temporarily and makes it available for reuse. This helps reduce the energy consumption of automated storage systems, lowering operating costs and making storage operations more resource-efficient.
Reduce transport distances and CO₂ emissions
With KASTOweld, storage cassettes for UNICOMPACT systems are manufactured directly at the customer's site. This eliminates unnecessary transport, reduces packaging waste and cuts associated costs and emissions.
Optimise material flow and make better use of resources
KASTOlogic warehouse management software connects storage systems, saws and material handling equipment to create more efficient workflows. Intelligent travel route optimisation and coordinated processes minimise unnecessary material movements and improve storage system utilisation.
