Energy/Emissions
Banner-Day teams with their customers
to address the growing concern of rising energy costs and increased pressure to
reduce emissions. By upgrading
oven systems, a bakery can improve its processes, and lower its energy costs
while lowering its emissions.
Banner-Day’s goal is to
improve quality while lowering energy costs and reducing emissions. The impact is improved overall
performance. Their customers gain
a financial and competitive advantage while reducing their “carbon footprint”,
positioning them as a “green” corporate citizen.
Banner-Day’s overall performance
with energy reduction has been an estimated 22%, which is a significant impact,
while having no adverse impact on quality. Recent installations suggest that even greater
reductions are available. To see
what one major bakery is doing, take a look at the following chart.

If you are concerned with
your energy costs and emissions, review a few of the ways that Banner-Day can help
improve your oven performance:
- Shuts off
gas flow to any burner that fails to light or stay lit.
- Saves
electrical energy by shutting off the ignition spark once the burner is lit.
- Provides
precise temperature control (~ ± 2°F) under all modes of oven operation; full
or empty.
- Eliminates nuisance
shut-downs from power outages of short duration (up to 8 seconds). Energy and product are saved by the
elimination of the necessity to re-purge the oven.
- Banner-Day “Total Oven Control” System,
including “recipe control”, “product tracking”, “tray skipping” and oven zone
switches and more, providing the opportunity for energy conscious oven operation.
