Astreo helps manufacturing companies cut energy costs and become more sustainable with an Industry 5.0 solution.

The plastic molding sector is highly energy-intensive, with injection molding machines and extruders requiring continuous power flows that heavily impact costs. To address this challenge, Astreo provides a system that digitalizes the production plant, creating a true energy digital twin. Our Plug-&-Play IoT sensors are quick and easy to install on any machine without adding clutter and, above all, without requiring machine downtime.

All extracted data is analyzed by our Cloud Energy Dashboard. The core of the solution is our proprietary AI, which processes the volume of information to automatically generate monthly reports and actionable saving recommendations.

In a recent project for a plastic molding company, implementing our suggestions cut the electricity bill by 23%. This milestone was achieved by eliminating anomalous power draw during downtime and leveraging our Benchmarking system to strategically redistribute the production load across “twin” presses.

Our focus extends to the environment as well. By calculating the CO_2-e carbon footprint, we provide objective data ready to be reported in corporate sustainability (ESG) statements.
