Chimtitan Invests in Green Energy: Our Solar Park

## A Major Step Toward Sustainable Production At Chimtitan, we have committed to reducing the environmental impact of our operations. In line with this commitment, we are pleased to announce the completion of our solar park installation on the roof and premises of our factory in Chitila, Ilfov County, Romania. ## Capacity and Numbers The solar park has an installed capacity of **250 kWp** and comprises over **450 state-of-the-art solar panels**. We estimate annual production of approximately **300 MWh**, sufficient to cover about **35%** of the factory's energy consumption. ### Environmental Impact Through this investment, we are reducing CO2 emissions by approximately **120 tons per year**, the equivalent of planting over 5,000 trees. This complements our ongoing efforts to develop formulations with low volatile organic compound (VOC) content and to optimize production processes for reduced resource consumption. ## Why This Matters to Our Clients Investing in renewable energy is not just an environmental responsibility but also a competitive advantage: - **Production cost stability** - reduced dependence on fluctuating conventional energy prices - **ESG compliance** - we support industrial clients who have sustainability goals throughout their supply chain - **Environmental certifications** - strengthening our position as a responsible manufacturer, ISO 14001 certified ## Future Plans This is only the first phase of our sustainability strategy. In the coming years, we plan to: 1. Expand solar capacity to **500 kWp** 2. Implement a heat recovery system from the production process 3. Transition to packaging made from 100% recyclable materials 4. Develop a complete range of eco-friendly paints with EU Ecolabel certification We are convinced that the paint and coatings industry can and must evolve toward more sustainable practices, and Chimtitan is committed to leading this transformation. --- *For questions about our sustainability practices or our eco-friendly product range, please do not hesitate to [contact us](/en/contact).*
