No matter where you are on your sustainability journey, our experts help you move forward—whether that’s unlocking hidden efficiencies, gaining real‑time visibility and control, or eliminating carbon emissions from your thermal energy systems.
Our global engineering teams work with you to diagnose system issues and identify evidence‑based optimisation opportunities that deliver quick, measurable improvements.
Through ongoing management and structured decarbonisation planning, we support long‑term efficiency needs and provide technically robust options for a planned transition to cleaner, lower‑carbon technologies.
Our Customer Sustainability Journey Framework
Before we start, we diagnose your system, building a clear understanding of how your steam and thermal energy systems are performing, where energy is being lost, and which risks or constraints are limiting efficiency and reliability.
Through an initial ‘Walk the Plant’ session by one of our engineers, and with follow up targeted audits, site assessments, and data led analysis, we establish a robust baseline across your system - from generation through to point of use. This diagnosis exposes hidden inefficiencies and cost drivers, enabling informed decisions, prioritised actions, and a clear roadmap for optimisation, smarter system management, and ultimately decarbonisation.
Our Customer Sustainability Journey framework focuses on three pivotal stages: optimisation, effective system management, and decarbonisation of steam generation through renewable energy sources. By integrating these three stages, we pave the way for a more stable and efficient future.

Personal care manufacturing: 70% water reduction
Cotopaxi’s audit uncovered excessive water use caused by a valve left open for two years. With new water metering and Strata in place, the issue was resolved and consumption dropped sharply.
Result: 750,000 gallons saved per day, £23.6K in pumping costs avoided annually.
Food manufacturing: £24K annual saving via machine shutdown optimisation
Strata data revealed that heat recovery systems were left running during shutdowns. Adjusting control logic to fully power down equipment eliminated wasted energy.
Result: £24K annual electricity savings.
Food manufacturing: £600K annual saving via steam optimisation
By throttling steam supply to fryers and steamers and installing additional metering, the manufacturer optimised fuel use without affecting product quality.
Result: 4,767 GJ/month fuel reduction, ~£600K annual savings.
Consumer goods processing: £11.5K annual saving via valve repair
Steam metering identified faulty isolation valves leaking steam during downtime. Replacing the valves stopped losses and improved control.
Result: £11.5K in annual savings.
Food processing: £65K annual saving via water leak detection
Strata alarms flagged a sudden spike in water consumption. Repairs to leaks, bypass valves and solenoid seals quickly restored normal use.
Result: 8.76 million gallons saved annually, £65K cost reduction.
