McCormick & Company, a Fortune 1000 manufacturer of food and flavorings, has been recognized by Energy Star for a Top Energy Project of 2018. The honor was awarded for a “compressed air system with heat recovery” in the company’s Dallas manufacturing plant.
IMEC has been chosen by Dow Chemical to design and build a chiller plant to augment current capacity in its Marlborough, MA facility. Two new 700 Ton chillers will be integrated to create 1,400 Tons of additional capacity.
The project will cut an astounding 52% in energy costs, reducing annual therm usage from 680,000 to 330,000, while providing heat for the food company’s pasteurizers, milk tanks, cookers, and CIP.

MACOM, a worldwide semiconductor and component manufacturer, has hired IMEC to assist with one aspect of its plant expansion project in Lowell, MA. Total electric and natural gas savings will total $52,000 annually.
National Grid has again presented IMEC with two awards recognizing its exemplary achievements as a Project Expeditor (PEX) producing exceptional energy-efficiency results and savings.
With IMEC’s assistance, Saint Gobain Abrasives in Worcester, MA is upgrading an on-site Powerhouse facility to pave the way to increase its CoGen capacity to 5 megawatts
When executives at Freudenberg-NOK’s 6-acre manufacturing plant in Bristol, NH began planning for a massive energy-efficiency project late in 2014, they couldn’t have dreamed of reducing the facility’s carbon footprint by 50% and saving more than $1.1 million per year on energy costs.
Garlock Printing, a leading commercial printer in Gardner, Massachusetts, has tapped IMEC for a major renovation of its press room to improve ventilation and air quality for employees while reducing energy costs.
Last week, IMEC president and director of engineering, Joe D’Ambrosio, was invited to speak to a group of the largest manufacturers in Rhode Island about the conception and design of efficient mechanical systems. Joe’s focus was on taking a scientific approach to solving mechanical challenges, and designing and building systems that benefit everyone by dramatically cutting energy costs and reducing the carbon footprint of manufacturing facilities.
On Wednesday May 6, president and director of engineering Joe D’Ambrosio, Sr. and team accepted the award for Innovative Energy Project of the Year from the Association of Energy Engineers of New England at the Annual New England Energy Awards at the Embassy Suites Hotel in Waltham. D’Ambrosio also made a presentation about the challenges, solutions, and energy efficiency features of the winning heat recovery project for Cains Foods.
With the assistance of the mechanical engineering design/build firm IMEC in Ayer, MA, the Freudenberg factory’s legacy system, which employs obsolete high pressure steam boilers and #6 fuel oil, is being scrapped in favor of leading-edge design and technology. The plant’s entire heating load will be replaced with efficient liquefied natural gas (LNG), initially phased in by employing propane as a bridge fuel.
