Case study
Smarter treatment to reduce energy bills
The challenge
Spiralling energy prices present a real challenge for businesses of all sizes, on top of the already pressing need to become more sustainable.
A UK laundry approached us to help them take back control of their energy and water use. They were using a mix of sulphites and phosphates, leading to a lot of avoidable inefficiencies and excess blowdown.

How GEMchem helped
After a thorough diagnostic assessment of the plant, we designed a treatment plan to reduce their environmental impact and cut costs.
By switching to our Cetamine technology, we were able to increase the plant’s efficiency and reliability, incrementally refining the treatment plan in partnership.
