Building Strength and Value
Small Company Taking Big Steps - Fast
In today's business, it’s no longer enough to simply carry your own weight. Companies have to be lean, efficient and maximize resources in order to move quickly, with agility and precision.
EcoThermics has accomplished in a short time what large, established corporations spend tens of millions of dollars over decades trying to do. We are successful in leveraging partnerships, an experienced and passionate team, our background in high-pressure hydraulics and thermodynamics, and the support of many strong believers in the importance and potential of our technology.
Frequently, people ask why big industry leaders aren’t as far along in CO2 R & D as EcoThermics. Quite simply, you’ve heard the expression “It’s hard to stop a train?” (Pun intended.) Large companies carry significant weight and it’s difficult to change direction once momentum sets in. The characteristics of transcritical CO2 are very different from those of HFC refrigerants and make this technology a “new science” - a level playing field for companies like EcoThermics.
Congressman Aaron Schock from Illinois’ 18th District remarked at a recent press conference,
“The keys to economic development spring from new technology innovation and commercialization. I’ve witnessed EcoThermics progress from an idea, through research and development, to prototype lab and field testing, to finally production design for manufacturability. EcoThermics is successfully accomplishing what many have tried and failed to do and we are proud to watch this technology flourish right here in Central Illinois.”
Lean, fast and flexible, EcoThermics efficiently maximizes all resources through leverage and collaboration. Beginning with angel investment funding, the company then selectively partnered with Herrick Labs at Purdue for testing, Festec Automation for prototype R&D and now with Mennie Machine Company for production design and cost reduction. Our small company works harder and smarter to do more with less… building value - growing strong.
