“ For both residential and commercial ventilation , there are two types of installation : existing applications and new build applications . For existing homes , we ’ re typically offering a replacement solution with much lower energy consuming motors , and some of our solutions reduce energy consumption by as much as 90 percent compared to the existing system . A topical conversation around ventilation is the amount of heat exhausted into the atmosphere , so we ’ re now developing integrated solutions that are not only more energy efficient but help with heat recovery .
“ When it comes to newly built housing , there are regulations around elevated standards of insulation and air quality , especially in the UK . We ’ re seeing rapid growth in heat recovery ventilation for newly built homes and we estimate that around 30- to-40 percent of all new homes in the UK are
built with either heat recovery or continuous system ventilation . This trend will inevitably continue to penetrate new construction in line with the push for decarbonization around the world .”
It ’ s clear that sustainability has been a key driver for Volution in recent years , but we ’ re keen to hear more about the company ’ s initiatives and solutions . “ As most of our products are made from plastics , we ’ ve been on a mission to increase the amount of recycled content ,” Ronnie explains . “ Many of our products are injection molded plastic and we started to challenge ourselves around how we could apply recycled polymers to the process rather than just virgin polymers . It wasn ’ t an easy process , as our products must have certain mechanical and fire-resistant properties , but over the last five years , we ’ ve worked with partners like Ultra Polymers to access recycled materials .
