Case Study: How a Commercial Printer Secured $240,000 in Green Technology Funding

In today’s competitive landscape, innovation and sustainability go hand in hand. For a commercial printer company looking to upgrade its operations, embracing energy efficiency was a priority, but funding the transition seemed out of reach—until Ayming stepped in.

Retrofitting for Efficiency: Context and Challenges

Sector: Commercial Printing

Objective: Secure maximum funding to support their green technology upgrade and facility retrofit.
