The Italian foundry industry is placing a stronger emphasis on sustainability as environmental concerns gain more attention. With a commitment to minimizing waste, Italian foudries are adopting innovative approaches to enhance resource efficiency. Resand's electric sand reclaimer is leading this transformation, offering a revolutionary solution for the sector. The e-reclaimer is a modular system designed for easy installation and swift commissioning. Its delivery time of just 4–5 months, has made it a highly accessible option for foundries.
The electrically powered reclaimer can cut CO2 emissions from new sand usage and its transportation by up to 70%. When powered by renewable energy, the reclaimer’s direct greenhouse gas emissions, or Scope 1 emissions, stay minimal. Once regenerated, the sand can be reused repeatedly in 3D printing and foundry processes, significantly lowering the demand for virgin sand.
CORSA3D, a division of Slayer Blades and a representative of Ex One, brings an innovative approach to 3D printing and additive manufacturing. With extensive experience, it specializes in producing sand cores and molds for sand casting.
‘Our strategy is to look into all game-changing solutions within the foundry industry and to be at the forefront of bringing these innovations to market. Resand is the first supplier to reclaim the 3D printing sand and reuse it in the process. Resand’s e-reclaimer represents a breakthrough in circular economy and efficiency, and we are proud to introduce it to Italy,’ says Elena Scattolin, CEO, Slayer Blades Srl.
‘I'm very delighted about our entry into the Italian market. This marks our first agreement in Italy, where our customer will play an important role in promoting our solution in the market as well. With this milestone, we continue to drive innovation in the European foundry market, contributing to a more sustainable future for the foundry industry,’ says Kalle Härkki, CEO, Resand Ltd.
