Case Study n°1: Céramique
Wedgewood
Being located in a high
conductive unit heat expelled by the kilns is retained throughout
the process and transferred to the workstations causing extremely
high temperatures.
Historically, Wedgwood had used large ceiling fans, but this only
recirculated the hot air.
The factory had never managed to crack the problem of providing
cooling for the workstation areas where the workforce had to
endure the high temperatures during long shifts.
The price of air conditioning was too prohibitive and other forms
of cooling were rejected as they could result in contaminants
entering the factory.
The five units have been
strategically placed to provide cooling at each workstation
reducing the temperatures by around 5øC, which has made a
tremendous difference to the workforce.
"The Breezair has worked really well and there have been some very
positive benefits", says Mark Andrew, Group Quality Improvement
Manager at Wedgwood.
"We have resolved the Health and Safety issue and although
unquantified it will have positive effects on absenteeism and
production."
