Reduce your material losses

Reducing your material losses is a key focus to improve the performance of your industrial sites. Beyond profitability considerations for your company, these losses have an impact on the environment.
Reduce material losses

Why reduce your material losses?

The materials footprint measures the volume of raw materials used by a country, an industry, or a factory.

For example, the dairy sector loses 15 million cubic meters of milk worldwide every year, resulting in 6 billion euros in losses. This waste has repercussions at several levels: costly waste treatment, decreased profitability, increased carbon footprint, etc.

Together, we must learn to reduce our material losses, regardless of the sector of activity.

Why take the plunge?

competitiveness

By valuing all purchased raw materials, you reduce the cost of materials and labor. Your factories become more profitable and therefore more competitive.

additional costs

By supervising your material losses, you anticipate potential drifts and avoid unnecessary additional costs that can become colossal.

waste

Reduce the volume of waste collection and processing, and decrease the pollution load at the entrance of the wastewater treatment plant. The benefits are also environmental.

Our solution to reduce your material losses

Your industrial sites receive, produce, and transform materials. However, some of these materials are lost during the process and become waste, whether recyclable or not.

Dametis supports you in reducing your material losses through its solution consisting of 3 successive steps.

Identify where your material losses come from through data
Reduce waste through material management
Train your teams in material management.

Assessing your material losses

Your industrial site is losing material at several points:

✔ During reception
✔ During storage
✔ During the transformation process

The first step is to identify where the material losses are coming from by relying on an overview of the industrial site’s data.

Reduce your material losses
with smart sensors

We map out the processes and collect your existing data. Then we implement our liquid material loss optimization module by placing sensors where there is suspicion of material losses.

Next, we connect these sensors to the MyDametis platform to monitor and analyze the data in real time. Once everything is set up, we implement 5 actions to reduce material losses.

1. Analysis and mapping
First, we analyze and map out material loss issues during mass transfers.
2. Localization and quantification
Then, we identify, locate, and quantify material losses in various areas: tank bottom, push or priming.
Material loss estimation
The third action consists of quantifying the material loss in volume and in euros.
4. Automatic detection of drifts
The MyDametis platform automatically detects deviations and implements an action plan to reduce material losses. In case of deviation detection, Dametis experts will come to your site to requalify the shoots and processes.
5. Creation of a reporting
To conclude, we are sending you a report that details the energy, water, and CO2 analytical accounting for each product.

Train your teams in material management

Our Dametis experts will tell you which actions to take to reduce material loss. But it’s even better if your teams become autonomous on the subject, isn’t it?

That’s why we train your employees so that they know what to do to minimize material losses.

Reducing your material losses, shall we start?

Reducing your carbon footprint starts with the first building block. Book a call with an industry expert to discuss the challenges of your industrial sites in terms of decarbonization.

TESTIMONIAL

They chose Dametis

With the rise in raw material costs, we turned to Dametis to reduce our milk losses throughout the manufacturing process. They installed MyDametis and connected it to sensors placed on our machines. We were able to map our material losses and implement an action plan to minimize them. The outcome: thousands of euros saved.
