Going Green, Saving Green
Water glycol hydraulic fluids, as noted in the latest Hydraulics & Pneumatics article, is more than just an environmentally friendly lubrication solution. As the article notes, “Many in the industry now recognize that selecting the proper hydraulic fluid can contribute to plant efficiency and ultimately help reduce costs. This insight has driven a great deal of innovation in the hydraulic fluid market. It has brought more choices to power transmission plants, steel and aluminum mills, and other facilities that rely on hydraulic fluids.”
In the continuing debate around creating a greener workplace, too often the discussion overlooks the idea that a strong environmental policy, properly conceived and managed, can not only make the planet greener but return plenty of green to the company coffers.
