Do you want to change your company's heating from fossil fuels to electricity while simultaneously reducing CO2 emissions? – We offer the Backer Switch service, which is specifically about switching from fossil to electrical energy sources in industrial processes or buildings, says Stian Gundersen, Sales Manager at Norske Backer.
– Often it is only the heating unit that needs to be replaced, he adds. – There is a great benefit to letting the existing system remain, it saves the environment from waste and benefits your company's economy.
Backer Switch consists of various phases where skilled design engineers use their experience and expertise to find the best possible solution for you. During the site visit, the engineers evaluate your company's existing heating system and map out opportunities. Based on this, you will receive a proposal with concrete, alternative solutions and a price quote.
– Completely without costly middlemen, Gundersen points out. – You get a thorough report and a recommendation from us, so that you can consider the way forward. If you go for our solution, our skilled production staff will specially manufacture the components we have agreed upon. The solution is produced in its entirety at Norske Backer in Kongsvinger.
Tailoring is the norm
Norske Backer is a company with extensive experience, solid expertise, and great breadth in product development. – If you have an industrial heating need, talk to us. Customization is our norm, says Gundersen.
– Many customers come because they have a specific heating need in their production process, and need solutions that are not off-the-shelf. Our design engineers have the experience and expertise to design the most optimal heating solution for the customers. There are many factors involved, such as size, power requirements, choice of materials, product environment, and what kind of media are to be heated. This is important to ensure the longest possible durability and quality of the solutions we create, says Gundersen.
From drawing board to finished product
Gundersen points out the advantage of production taking place at the same location where both sales and design engineers are based.
– That means you can be sure that the solution on the drawing board becomes a reality in production. The earlier we get involved in a project, the better we can ensure that important areas are optimized, such as the choice of materials, components, technology, thermal management, energy consumption, sustainability, cost-efficiency, and compliance with all applicable laws, regulations, and standards, he concludes.
"It is incredible what our engineering department produces, the green shift is an important driving force," Gundersen concludes.
