Today we are all ecologists?!

GREENWASHING? No, thank you

A long time ago, saying that it is “green” has become a central issue to support the environmental reputation of each company.
All the more reason today that the European Community, through the Recovery Plan, foresees financial contributions, all promise energy savings, environmental sustainability, etc.

But who really devotes resources to technological innovation in favour of the environment and energy saving? Certainly not all.

RCM and ecology, without lies

Although without model purposes, rcm resells an environmental behavior that has distant roots.

Sweepers

«When, in 1967, we started to produce the sweepers, the word ‘ecology’ was still not in fashion, but we dedicated ourselves from the beginning to improving the systems for the control of dust with respect to the machines until then produced by the competition, introducing new technical solutions.» says Raimondo Raimondi, president of RCM, as

– 50% increase of the filter surface, maintaining the same dimensions of machine space

– the search for the most suitable materials for filtering the different types of powder: polyester cartridge filter for 5/20 micron filtration, normal multi-pocket filter and KERASTATIC, to filter the powder of the ceramic industry.

– dust control of side brushes.

– control of dust during discharge of the waste container.

All improvements to RCM sweepers contributed to increased cleanliness in environments where workers often worked in poor hygiene conditions. Until now, RCM sweepers are highly appreciated, especially in dusty environments (ceramics, foundries, cementeries, rubber work, etc).

Scrubbers

«Successively, also in the field of scrubbing machines», continues President Raimondo Raimondi, «we have dedicated the same energies to produce them so that they work with the full satisfaction of the customers, in the maximum respect of the environment, applying the following measures».

Is a system for saving and recovering the energy used that increases the working autonomy.

It is a device that allows you to use the least amount of water and detergent needed to ensure an excellent result. Increases autonomy and reduces environmental impact.

Reduces noise emissions for use even in environments where special discretion is required.

Working Modes for Low Environmental Impact Maintenance Cleaning: Reducing Energy, Water and Noise Consumption. Increases the autonomy of work.

Ozone system for soil sanitation, without the use of chemical detergents. Zero impact.

Fleet control and maintenance.

A complete series of SWEEPERS and SCRUBBERS with high ecological content.

We will probably never receive the contributions from the European Fund for Green Businesses, but it is enough for us at RCM to think that, with our daily commitment, we are making a small contribution to the improvement of our planet and, above all, nurturing, day after day, that confidence that our customers have confirmed for more than 50 years.
