What Does It Mean To Be Certified Green?
We don't make claims, we certify our claims and back our claim up with HARD DATA! HIX Machines
HIX Corporation recently tested two equal wattage machines; a stock HIX heat transfer machine with no black PTFE non stick coating on the heating element and one with the Black PTFE non stick coating applied to the heat element. We hooked up a kWh (Kilo-Watt-Hour) meter to both machines to measure how much electricity it takes to operate each machine over the same amount of time and we discovered that the non coated heat element on our standard stock heat transfer machines used 43% less electricity to operate than the heat press with the Black PTFE coating! How can this be true? The answer is simple and it's called physics! In physics there is a phenomena called "Black Body Radiation" where it is scientifically proven that the color black not only absorbs more IR heat, it also casts off more IR heat if the object generates heat. Science doesn't lie and the proof for the user will be a cooler work area around the machine, and lower energy bills each month! Another energy saving benefit of owning a HIX press is the fact that with less heat released into the work area will reduce the need to run the air conditioner as long in the shop to cool the work area! Another proven fact is that HIX heat castings are the longest lasting heating elements available. This eliminates the need to send the press to a land fill since it keeps doing its job year after year! If you want smaller energy bills and at the same time do your part to help the environment by reducing your plant's carbon footprint, HIX Heat Transfer machines are the perfect solution!
