NORDIC A/S is an industrial distributor in Denmark, known for providing machine shops with high-end solutions and service. Since 2022, NORDIC A/S has been working closely with 3nine to introduce the separation technology to the Danish market.
Back in 2022, NORDIC A/S was looking for a solution to add to their portfolio that could effectively handle oil mist — a persistent challenge for many of their customers. They were immediately impressed by 3nine’s separation technology that removes oil from air with 99.9% efficiency and allows coolant to be recovered and reused directly in machines — a benefit no other product in the market offered.
Turning a Challenge into Opportunity
Initially, Danish machine shops were restricted in how they could handle oil mist. Processed air had to be vented outside, restricting the full benefits of the 3nine technology. NORDIC A/S and 3nine worked with authorities to demonstrate that recirculated, cleaned air could be safe and effective.
“We worked together with 3nine to influence the authorities, and eventually the legislation was changed”, says Lau Akstrup Jensen, CEO of NORDIC A/S. “Since then, our customers can fully benefit from the separation technology — cleaner air, safer workplaces, and recovered coolant that can be reused.”
Real Results for Customers
Many of NORDIC A/S’s customers are seeing measurable benefits. For example, one customer who runs their machines 24/7 recovers a remarkable 50 liters of coolant per day. Reusing this coolant directly in the machines reduces waste and represents significant annual cost saving. Other workshops have replaced outdated central systems with 3nine units, cutting heating costs by up to 20% during Denmark’s colder months.
It’s not just about clean air, Lau explains. It’s about saving money, reducing waste, and creating a safer working environment for everyone.
A Partnership That Delivers
NORDIC A/S values the close collaboration with 3nine. “The 3nine team listens to our challenges and works with us to solve real problems in the workshop. That’s exactly the kind of partnership we look for in a supplier,” Lau continues.
By separating oil mist from the air instead of simply collecting it, 3nine units enable coolant reuse, minimize downtime, and reduce waste. The technology helps NORDIC A/S’s customers maintain healthier workspaces, lower maintenance needs, and improve productivity.
Or as Lau firmly puts it: “It’s a solution that delivers operational efficiency, employee safety, and environmental responsibility — all in one.”
