FUCHS continually strives to reduce environmental impact through innovative packaging solutions and sourcing the latest materials required for modern fluids in all sectors.
As an alternative to the regular 20L plastic containers, the launch of a 20 litre Lube Cube has been exceptionally positive and well received.
Following on from this success, FUCHS Silkolene will shortly be launching the 4L Lube Cube complete with all the existing benefits of the larger Lube Cube, including improved carbon footprint as the packaging boasts a 100% recyclable outer and a 98% recyclable inner. It is easy to store and limits waste and spills.
The 4L pack is printed in a four-colour process, fully branded with all the unique selling points FUCHS Silkolene offers, and
will create a sense of theatre to the end user upon receipt.
This new package has been made possible by the installation of a specially designed Lube Cube filling/packing machine. It will ensure the Lube Cubes can be filled just as quickly as the plastic alternative.
Alongside new product development, FUCHS UK is constantly reviewing manufacturing capability and practices and continuously investing in new innovative manufacturing plant machinery.
Soon to be installed on the small pack filling lines is a robotic arm which will increase production capacity by over 75% whilst at the same time actively reducing operative manual handling so providing improved health and safety benefits.
Additional robotic arms will be commissioned for the barrel and IBC filling lines, as well as heated filling heads for the specialist wire rope products.
