Because climate change and energy costs are of concern to all of us, Dalla Corte has commissioned IMQ, The internationally renowned institute for product certification in the areas of quality and safety to conduct energy efficiency tests, which have already proven successful for many other electrical appliances, to develop a neutral test process.

"This test procedure ensures that from now on there is more transparency and comparability in the market," according to Dalla Corte. "Two-, three- and four-grouped machines from the Evolution Series were tested under different conditions, such as 24-hour operation, standby and so on. The results now firmly establish Dalla Corte as setting the industry standard for espresso machines."

Dalla Corte claims that it now provides the first true comparison for energy efficiency in the industry and challenges its competitors to come up with increasingly better more energy efficient products.
