MEDITE operates two Medium Density Fibreboard production lines including finishing and packaging lines at its site in Clonmel with a total production capacity of well over 400,000 m3 per annum. MDF production by its nature is very energy intensive both from an electrical and thermal energy point of view with the demand mainly cantered around the physical modifications made to the wood at several points in the process. The energy demand of the process is currently met by multiple energy sources. Electricity is imported from the grid while heat is produced by two biomass plants ,Line 1 steam boilers and Line 2 Energy Centre, as well as a gas fired thermal oil boiler. MEDITE’s energy management system has been ISO 50001 accredited since 2017. SMARTPLY recently upgraded its press technology from a multi daylight press to a continuous press to increase the total production capacity of the plant to well over 300,000 m3 per annum. The energy demand of the process is currently met by an energy plant which feeds heat directly into a single drum dryer. Production is run 24 hours a day with the line only brought down for maintenance once a month. SMARTPLY’s energy management system has been ISO 50001 accredited since 2023. MEDITE SMARTPLY have a long held commitment to reducing the carbon footprint of their manufacturing processes and have achieved a significant reduction since 2010. The Energy Conservation measures carried out over this period include LED Lighting Upgrades with smart controls, fan system optimisations, compressed air system optimisations and multiple process and thermal system optimisations. Medite SmartPly’s energy programme has delivered significant energy reduction in both plants to date; this has reduced the cost of production of MDF and OSB in the plants allowing the company to be more competitive in the respective markets
