As a business owner, it’s great to find ways to make your shop more environmentally friendly. Choosing green products for cleaning and maintenance can help, as well. However, as a metal shop owner, it’s likely that your biggest environmental impact is in your disposal of used machine coolant fluid.
Of course, you dispose of your coolant properly to ensure you’re meeting all environmental regulations. But, what if you could reduce the amount of coolant you must dispose of by 80%? That would be a huge impact on your facility’s commitment to the environment.
You might be surprised to learn that it’s actually easy to reduce the amount of coolant you dispose of by that amount. The key is recycling your coolant so that it can be used over and over again before it must be disposed of. It’s as simple as installing a machine coolant filtration system in your shop.
A machine coolant filtration system allows you to separate machine oil from your coolant in your machines as it is being used. Removing the oil, you to lets you recycle the coolant several times before you dispose of it.
In addition to making your shop more environmentally friendly, adding a machine coolant filtration system to your shop saves you money, as well. If you’re using 80% less coolant, that means you’re paying for 80% less coolant, as well. Those savings add up quickly when you run a business that uses a lot of machine coolant.
In addition, you’ll save money on the costs of disposing of your fluid, too. Over time, the savings between buying less coolant and disposing of it could make a significant difference to your bottom line.
