World Energy Day: MTG's COOLERSIL hoses for a more sustainable future

October 22nd is celebrated World Energy Day, an anniversary created to promote energy efficiency, renewable sources and a more responsible management of resources. For MTG, sustainability is not a trend, but a concrete and daily commitment.

In this context, the sector of wind energy represents an increasingly strategic area, in which our products make a silent but fundamental contribution.

COOLERSIL: silicone hoses for cooling wind turbines

Behind the large blades that catch the wind, there are less visible but essential components. COOLERS hoses of MTG are designed for the cooling systems of turbines, especially in power plants offshore.

Inside the engine box our hoses transport water and glycol to maintain engine temperatures and ensure the safe and efficient operation of turbines. COOLERSIL hoses are typically used for cooling and maintenance of systems, thus contributing to their operational reliability.

Why COOLERSIL makes a difference in offshore conditions

Offshore operations are complex and maintenance activities can involve very high costs, up to several thousand euros for each hour of plant downtimeIn this scenario, the durability and resistance of the components become decisive factors.

Main benefits:

• Extended service life, thanks to the greater resistance of silicone.
• Low maintenance, which means fewer unscheduled interventions and a significant reduction in operating costs.
• Continuity and reliability, essential to guarantee constant and safe energy even in the most difficult environments.

It is no coincidence that these product lines are already used by important players in the international wind sector, confirming their quality and reliability.

MTG and sustainability: beyond wind power

MTG's commitment to the environmental sustainability extends to all product lines. We are investing in measuring our carbon footprint and in the development of new solutions, including the line ECO GREEN, made withbio-attributed rubberfrom plant sources anddevulcanized recycled rubber.

In parallel, we are carrying out research projects on recycled silicone, with encouraging results that open up new prospects for an increasingly circular industry.

MTG's role in the energy transition

From feeding all’wind power, passing through the chemical and the pharmaceutical, our hoses find application in very different sectors, but with a common thread: the search for reliability, efficiency and sustainability.

With solutions like the COOLERSIL hoses and initiatives such as the line ECO GREEN, MTG confirms itself as a reliable partner for companies that want to face the challenge of energy transition with a responsible and innovative approach.
