On 28 November 2024, KS Gleitlager GmbH inaugurated an innovative waste and local heating system at its St. Leon-Rot site with representatives from politics, administration and the regional economy. By installing the system, the company will reduce its CO2 emissions by up to 800 tonnes per year in future. You can also read the corresponding press release from Rheinmetall AG here.
The project was realised under the management of CEIH GmbH.

With our plain bearing solutions, we support our customers every day in reducing friction losses and increasing the efficiency and service life of their products. In this respect, the concept of sustainability is an integral part of our company. I am therefore all the more pleased that we were able to successfully realise this flagship project together with SLR and the CEIH.
Planning and implementing the technology was not always easy, but in the end we were able to optimise the system for providing the heat and bring it to the maximum possible temperature level.
We put a lot of heart and soul into this project. Among other things, we took care of the formalities, tax and legal guidelines and reworked the wayfinding process several times. The effort was worth it in the end and we are very proud to have mastered all the challenges.
Experience how a vision becomes reality! In our video, we accompany this exciting project from initial planning to successful completion.
