Show Notes

Lubricants are tightly interlinked with our sustainability goals. And when I say sustainability I mean both environmental and business. We've talked at length on this podcast about the way that lubricants affect energy efficiency and machine reliability, but how about the sustainability of the actual lubricant itself? Greg Livingstone is back to help us understand the impact of the full lifecycle of the lubricants we use in industry.
