#atodamáquina
The end client sells food & drink vending machines and the hashtag is a play on words: both in the sense of the usual meaning of "a toda máquina", i,.e., at full speed, flat out, full steam ahead... and also in the sense that every machine it sells complies with environmental sustainability standards (recyclable packaging, cups, stirrers etc..)
Any ideas how to reproduce the play on words in English?
Thanks in advance

#atfullgreenpower
By the way, although the Spanish expression "a toda máquina" does mean "at full speed", "full steam ahead", etc., as far as I know, it has nothing to do with being green and, as such, I really do not think it will convey the desired message.

Following Phil's comment, maybe you could change the word order and say something like "#greenatfullpower". Or do a more literal translation and just say "#atfullpower".

: I don't think you can reproduce the wordplay, and "green power" is misleading because it implies renewable energy. You have to write something new from scratch and forget the idea of full power.

Yes, I can see how "green power" can be misleading if interpreted literally!
