Focus on Energy 2024 Energy Efficiency Excellence Award Winner!

Kaysun is deeply committed to energy conservation. Extensive production changes, improved chiller operation, and interior and exterior lighting conversions were all important steps in supporting our goals. But, the addition of our Central Material Handling System more than doubled our annual energy savings, earning Kaysun the Focus on Energy 2024 Energy Efficiency Excellence Award and a grant to fund future conservation efforts.

Scrap Plastic Recycling

Working with renewable fuel and power producer Convergen Energy, Kaysun actively participates in converting plastic waste to clean energy for the benefit of our community, country, and world.

 

Kaysun regrind is part of the nearly 40% of recycled plastic in the Convergen Energy fuel pellets utility companies use to generate electricity instead of burning coal.

 

Manitowoc Public Utilities has seen a 55% reduction in greenhouse gasses with the switch — a result that encouraged Kaysun to set significant near-term waste-to-energy goals.

Cardboard Recycling

Kaysun’s Green Team coordinated the elimination of all on-site dumpsters designated for cardboard collection by adding a baler and creating recycling logistics for all cardboard instead of sending it to a landfill.

Employee Garden

A big part of Kaysun culture is our focus on wellness. That’s why we’ve converted a piece of our property into a Kaysun employee garden. We encourage our employees and their families to plant fruits, vegetables, and flowers so they can enjoy fresh, chemical-free produce. This also gives them a chance to showcase their “green thumb” skills.
