Dal-Tile Corporation a Subsidiary of Mohawk — Dickson, Tennessee
As the largest manufacturer of ceramic and natural stone products in North America, Dal-Tile Corporation is focused on sustainable business operations that reduce their impact on the environment. Given the scale and environmental impact of its plant operations, the company established a series of sustainability goals that include lowering greenhouse gas emissions and increasing energy efficiency. To help achieve the ambitious target, Dal-Tile, a subsidiary of Mohawk Industries installed five Capstone C1000 Signature Series microturbines to enhance the overall energy efficiency at their 1.2 million-square-foot Dal-Tile plant. Clean waste heat from the microturbine exhaust is used in an industrial drying process, thereby increasing overall efficiency to over 90%. The microturbines provide not only operational savings with on-site power generation but also provide critical emergency backup in the event of a power outage.
