A CHANGE MAKER

VALUE PROPOSITION

We are bringing a PARADIGM SHIFT to industrial water sustainability. Instead of trying to increase the SUPPLY of available water, we are helping our B2B customers to significantly decrease the DEMAND (water use) for potable freshwater (or any liquid) during their industrial processes, like washing, cleaning or rinsing processes. We are a desired partner in Water Demand Management.
  • ​Our globally patented technology can REMARKABLY DECREASE THE WATER CONSUMPTION (water demand / use) incurring during industrial processes, like washing. In our reference cases the savings has been 80-90%.

  • Other water technology companies take water consumption volumes as a given parameter - and focus on maintaining/improving the water supply through closed-loop water recycling. Our approach is more sustainable in the longer run as our solution creates less waste water and do not require chemical purification processes.  
​
  • Additional value propositions, e.g.: Smaller physical footprint/weight for water/liquid tanks, more optimized logistics of the to-be-processed products/items. 
​
  • Metabar has references how our solution will bring REMARKABLE OPEX COSTS SAVINGS. In water-intensive industrial applications the pay-back time of the needed investment is usually between 1 and 2 years.

MULTIPLE APPLICATIONS IN MULTIPLE VERTICALS

We are already active e.g. within the following industrial verticals (in alphabetical order):
  • Food & beverages
  • Human resilience (defence / dual-use)
  • Mining
  • Moving platforms (airplanes, passager ships, trains)

We believe that the biggest markets for our technology are outside Finland - in countries / regions suffering from water scarcity. At the moment we are looking for industrial partners, who would be interested to integrate our technology to their own service offerings. If you are getting interested, please contact us.

NEW WATER SUSTAINABILITY EU REQUIREMENTS

https://sdgs.un.org/goals/goal6​
https://sdgs.un.org/goals/goal9​​
New EU regulations already published:
  • EU Taxonomy (2021) + Delegated Acts
  • EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) + related 1. Delegated Acts in Feb 2024 ("ESRS standards")

    ESRS E3 Water and marine resources


    ➡ Metabar-solution enables better performance reporting in e.g. ESPR E3-4 Water consumption

    ➡ Obligatory to include ESRD E3 requirements into the "double materiality" analysis, if a company operates in areas of water scarcity / water stress

  • Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR), July 2024

New EU regulation still in the pipeline, e.g.
  • "Green Claims Directive"
  • Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation (PPWR)

Metabar's value propositions relating to CSRD:
  • A solution enabling outstandig compliance

  • Low water consumption =>
    A competitive edge in future procurement competitions

TECHNOLOGY SOLUTION

KEY ENABLERS
  • 3D metal printed nozzles – tailor-made to each customer's needs

  • Combination of pressured gas (e.g. air) and liquids (e.g. water) – creating a mist or spray effect Sensors (well-known Intr'l partners)

  • Software, which controls the combined flows of liquids and gases, from 0,1 bar up (no upper limit), based on the approriate sensor data & parameters
ANTICIPATED OUTCOMES
  • A system solution, which can decrease the liquid consumption up to 80%-90% !

  • E.g. a washing process, which can vary fluently from "gentle" to "intensive" based on the fast changing needs

  • Less water consumption -> less water abstraction -> more water sustainability in water stress/scarcity areas
    ​

  • Reputational benefit in future sustainability-focused "green claims" / competition / procurement within EU
"The main goal is TO REDUCE OVERALL CONSUMPTION (footprint) and help the world's INDUSTRY WITH INNOVATIVE OPERATIONS EFFECTIVELY achieve THE SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS of each domain and help our Clients to prepare and face the new ESG REGULATIONS."
 .
We optimize water/liquid use models and logistics in the process industry, and now the targets are also mobile platform solutions.

TECHNOLOGY SERVICES

Metabar's technology is based on utilizing the energy of pressurized gas controlled by flows and sensors. With it, the liquid is delivered to the 3D metal printed and 100% customizable nozzles.

The nozzle method creates an appropriate mist or spray effect, which can be infinitely adjusted over a wide pressure range, starting from 0.1 bar and up without an upper limit. Nozzles are used to create a desired spray, mist or other controlled functional combination of compressed gas and liquid using a special method. The system aimed at optimizing and reducing consumption is patented.

The core components of the device solution are the nozzles realized as a result of 3D design and 3D metal printed. The number of nozzles and the size of the device unit are defined according to the customer's needs. The system is an intelligently  controlled and sensor-equipped procedure solution for pressurized gas and liquids, the device unit of which is built for the customer either as a series product or as a customized service.
