Results

The FUCHS UK plant produces 130 million litres/annum of lubricants consisting of 1100 different basic grades filled into 2500 grade/pack combinations. The complexity of the operation means that there is significant potential for the generation of waste.

The Pigging Systems together with improved product segregation measures has led to a reduction of 59.6% in waste oil.
