HNI Corporation (NYSE: HNI) announced it has received a Better
Project Award from the U.S. Department of Energy’s Better Buildings
Initiative.
The Better Project Award acknowledges HNI's exceptional
achievements in executing energy-efficient initiatives within its
manufacturing operations, particularly concerning the optimization
of paint booth ovens. Through the addition of air curtains designed
by HNI, it was able to reduce oven energy demand by up to 30% per
oven while also stabilizing oven temperatures. These improvements
help increase efficiency, reduce overall greenhouse gas emissions,
and provide a better working environment for members.
“Partners in the Better Plants Challenge are industry leaders in
energy efficiency and decarbonization. As a winner of a Better
Project award, HNI has demonstrated an innovative pathway to
improve energy efficiency and reduce emissions that other
organizations can learn from,” said Carolyn Snyder, Deputy
Assistant Secretary for Buildings and Industry at the U.S.
Department of Energy.
“HNI is committed to improving operations and combating climate
change to create a better, more sustainable, tomorrow. HNI’s
sustainability efforts are rooted in our culture of continuous
improvement. We are proud of this achievement and the success of
this project as we seek new and better ways to drive efficiency in
our operations,” said Lisa Brunie-McDermott, HNI Director of
Corporate Social Responsibility.
