Energy columns – supply machines and workplaces with all the media they need
Energy columns are the refuge for many machines and jobs in industry. These columns can provide not only energy, but also other media such as compressed air, water, data and even cleaning fluids. The various services available through various media pillars increase the efficiency and productivity of employees. Since the media required for each activity is designed differently, it is very important that they are directly available via appropriate columns. Energy columns are therefore an important part of the industrial infrastructure and the future of industrial production.
