Case Study: Henkel achieves major energy savings and sustainability gains with AVEVA

Henkel boosts energy efficiency 16% with AVEVA

Henkel AG & Co. KGaA, a major manufacturer of laundry and home care products, faced challenges in collecting and communicating energy consumption and emissions data across its global supply chain. To meet ambitious sustainability goals and achieve ISO 50001 certification, Henkel needed a unified system to monitor resources in real-time. They partnered with vendor AVEVA to implement a new energy monitoring system.

AVEVA implemented a digital backbone using its System Platform, Historian, and Manufacturing Execution System - Performance solutions. This provided a centralized, real-time view of energy data, enabling Henkel to identify inefficiencies and make targeted improvements. The results were significant, including €37 million in energy cost savings to date and a 16% reduction in energy consumption per ton of product in 2020. The solution also improved overall equipment effectiveness by 15% and achieved 100% label quality, eliminating waste.
