Mechanical Engineering for Sustainability

Excelling at the Science of Sustainable Mechanical Engineering and Design.

Applying a scientific process to the conception of sustainable engineering solutions immeasurably improves creativity and results.

The art of scientific inquiry and the discipline of engineering are a perfect marriage. Traditional engineering follows defined parameters and accepted conceptual and numerical processes to arrive at solutions, while science inspires thinking outside the box to discover new frontiers when solving complex problems.

Our engineers think of themselves as scientists who work in the engineering field. This is “the IMEC way,” and the greatest differentiating benefit of collaborating with us. The process builds systems that function efficiently and reliably with optimal energy-saving results—exactly as planned. 

In 2019, manufacturers will realize 112,000 tons of carbon reduction through energy-efficient systems designed and installed by IMEC.

We apply inventive thinking on sustainability to what most engineers approach with standard solutions. We welcome unusual one-of-a-kind challenges. It starts with being open to—and encouraging—new ideas. In fact, the projects that produce the greatest results are usually the ones in which we break from tradition. Our ultra-efficient sustainability solutions are developed using the scientific method and then fully vetted through critical analysis.
