Operations of buildings account for 30% of global energy consumption, we aim to reduce that with each one of our clients.
'Greener with CARE' a nice title with a strong message. We spoke with Nadine Hessel, from our CARE services team to find out more about the team and the 'Greener with CARE' concept.
Explore Greener with CARE
Sustainability is at the forefront of everything we do at FläktGroup, and this campaign will reflect and show what we are doing to make our services go green.
"I have been with the company for 18 years and I now work as our Global Director Services Operations."
With 18 years of experience within our company Nadine has a vast knowledge of our industry and really gets to grips with our service operations.
“I’m responsible for enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of services across FläktGroup. I also ensure that our services operations are aligned with the strategic objectives of FläktGroup’s strategy.”
Our future, coined as FläktFuture, looks to increase our contribution to sustainability in the HVAC industry. It is important to us all that we look for sustainable alternatives that will benefit everyone in the long term. Our service team is one of the many turning cogs at our company that helps make this vision come to fruition.
So, what is Greener with CARE?
At FläktGroup we provide premium service solutions and skilled specialists to ensure reliable operation across our wide range of system solutions. CARE is the brand name of that service and Greener with CARE is how we are implementing sustainability into our services.
“Greener with CARE highlights FläktGroup’s green service portfolio. In this context, our service brand CARE means that we care about resources and environments.”
You can find out how we are doing this here: https://www.flaktgroup.com/en/service/greener-with-care/
Our CARE service team provides many service benefits:
- Commissioning
- Extended Warranty
- Maintenance Agreements
- Spare Parts
- Repair
- Modernization and Refurb

It is important to us that we champion these greener initiatives as they benefit us all in the long term. We want to spread the word and show what we are doing as a company to provide you with excellent green solutions and green services.
“We ensure that we not only focus on sustainability during the manufacturing of our products, but for the whole lifecycle.”
Our solutions are not a one and done system. They are a complete lifestyle change that will continue long into their future life.
“We make sure that our products have a long service life and that our services have as little impact on the environment as possible.”
Maintaining these systems is made simple with our incredible service team making sure your product continues to provide sustainable performance. It is not just about the individual product but also for our solutions too.
There is a lot of talk about ‘solutions’ but what does that mean?
When we talk about solutions, we are referring to groups of products that provide a specific service.
These can often be split into categories within critical applications, in which solution selling is best:
- Data Centres
- Marine, Oil & Gas
- Car Parks & Tunnels
- Clean Rooms
- Pharma
- Healthcare & Hospitals
- Gigafactories
- Commercial buildings
- & more.
Industry settings, such as the ones listed, require controlled environments suitable to their individual needs and it is important that the proper equipment is implemented to give you the absolute best performance. Our solutions are the answer. A group of integrated products connected to give you the best performance possible.
We recently worked with an industrial customer with projects in four countries across Europe and Asia. Across that time, we:
- Retrofitted 145 AHUs
- Assembled 800 EC fans
- 6.100.000 kWh power reduction per year
- €900k in cost saving
- 1423 tonnes of CO2 emission reduced per year (this equal to approximately 21,346 tree seedlings grown for 10 years!)
The statistics don’t lie, and we aim to make more differences like this across numerous different projects. Will you commit to our solutions?

What is the purpose of Greener with CARE?
“There are many different purposes of this campaign. One aspect is to present our green portfolio as part of ESG.”
ESG stands for environmental, social and governance. It is an investing principle that prioritises environmental issues, social issues, and corporate governance. Something that we actively strive and invest in ourselves.
Recently we at FläktGroup have just recruited an ESG manager for our company, Jekaterina Lindberg, who will be coordinating our sustainable activities and reporting, as well as overseeing sustainability projects across our company. She had this to say:
"Though I’ve only recently stepped into my role, it's already evident that FläktGroup has the highest ambition regarding sustainability. We are now intensifying our efforts by defining strategic sustainability focus areas and setting clear targets and implementation roadmaps. Through this, we aim to meet—and hopefully exceed—the growing expectations of our customers and stakeholders when it comes to ESG."
We are incredibly excited for our sustainable future at FläktGroup, and we look forward to making our vision a reality.
What can CARE do for you?
“We really want to draw attention to opportunities for sustainability in HVAC.”
As leading innovators in the HVAC industry, we want to share our knowledge and expertise to everyone to make sure that they are maintaining sustainable practices. With this campaign we hope to attract people to our services so they too can directly benefit from us.
It is also about sharing what our CARE team can provide too.
“If we take retrofit as an example of what our service team can provide, a unit should be used as long as possible. But old units might be inefficient or have high energy costs. Doing a retrofit, which means exchanging components to new designs, will reduce energy costs and carbon emissions, while using most of the old unit.”
This is one of the many services we are promoting with our CARE team.
The Vision
With every great idea there is always a vision behind what we do and Greener with CARE is looking towards that vision as Nadine explains.
“We will continue to keep our focus on sustainable practices in service business and expand our green service portfolio. We will be watching out for new technologies that make our service team even smarter, more efficient, and more sustainable.”
Our vision is clear, our destination is clear, and our goal is clear. We want everyone to adopt sustainable practices in the future and so we begin this journey with Greener with CARE.
"We will leverage technology to enhance efficiency and reduce environmental impact. And by ensuring continuous improvement, we keep sustainable practices at the forefront.”
But what can our customers do to help?
"You can get in contact with us and discuss opportunities for green services. Be it a retrofit for an old unit or a new controls system, we will find a sustainable solution that in turns helps you to save energy and money. You will actively be contributing to a cleaner environment for all.”
Nadine is not wrong; you can play an active part in a sustainable future for all. Contact us now and get in touch. We will help you in your journey to a sustainable future: Service Contacts | FläktGroup (flaktgroup.com)
"For me personally, sustainability is an important topic in my life, and I try to take it into account whenever possible. I am proud to work for FläktGroup, a company that is helping to improve indoor air quality, a factor that everyone comes to terms with. Our products are eco-friendly and energy efficient. But we do not stop there, because sustainability affects the entire product life cycle. In my job as Global Director Services Operations, I make sure that we also pay attention to sustainability in service. Our maintenance extends the product life cycle and with our retrofit solutions, we modernise old units to save energy and carbon emissions. We strive to use new technologies like remote access that also save CO2 emissions. It makes me happy to be able to combine this aspect privately and professionally. Sustainability always matters to create a green future. And I’m happy that it gets greener with CARE.”
Just like Nadine, we are all incredibly passionate about sustainability. We have the tools, the expertise, the craft, and the knowledge for a sustainable future but it starts with you.
