Lubrication Engineers, Inc. (LE) presents a compelling argument for the integration of sustainability principles within the industrial lubrication landscape. This blog is an overview of our eBook, which delves into LE’s commitment to the environmental pillar of sustainability, showcasing how our products, services and corporate practices contribute to a more ecologically responsible future.
LE’s Enduring Commitment to Sustainability
Since 1951, LE has demonstrated a steadfast dedication to sustainability, which is manifest in several key areas:
- Product Innovation: LE prioritizes the development of long-lasting, environmentally friendly lubricants. These formulations are specifically engineered to minimize energy consumption and waste generation while protecting equipment.
- Production and Operations: In 2009, LE adopted a transformative approach to production processes by implementing a condition-based maintenance program. This shift treats lubricants as assets, not consumables, and has resulted in the significant reduction of gearbox oil consumption and maintenance hours.
- Employee Satisfaction: The transition to reliability programs not only benefits the environment, but also prioritizes employee safety and well-being. LE invests in comprehensive training and advanced tools like Xtract® filter carts, Xport® Single Point Lubricators and Xclude® desiccant breathers.
Empowering Customers for Sustainable Practices
LE recognizes that true sustainability requires a collaborative effort. We actively support our customers’ sustainability goals through a multipronged approach:
- Customer Education & Training: LE offers comprehensive training classes like MLT I and CLS. This training equips customers with the knowledge and skills necessary to make informed lubrication choices that align with environmental responsibility.
- Customer Engagement: LE fosters strong partnerships with their customers, providing onsite recommendations, education and ongoing support. This collaborative approach allows LE to work closely with customers to understand their specific equipment and lubrication needs.
- Reduced Waste: LE’s commitment to waste reduction is evident in our extended service interval lubricants and oil analysis programs, which minimize unnecessary lubricant changes and disposal. Additionally, LE provides specialized tools for lubricant contamination removal, further extending lubricant lifespan and minimizing waste generation.
