Carbon-neutral drying made easy

For many vehicle manufacturers, the drying process is a significant obstacle to achieving CO₂-neutral production. The drying phase consumes more energy than any other part of the car body painting process and has a large carbon footprint. The solution? Electrify the oven. Dürr is the first supplier to electrify all body ovens in its portfolio. The company’s first pilot project using green electricity – an oven in a Scandinavian paint shop that has been operational since 2018 – demonstrates that the drying process still meets the same high-quality standards.
