What kind of productivity levels do you expect your products to deliver for machines particularly in the steel sector? Today, industrial equipment manufacturers are increasingly designing new equipment that is extremely compact and operates at higher temperatures and pressures than ever before As a result, maintenance professionals in the steel sector can benefit greatly from learning more about how to choose the right grease that will deliver the performance they need to protect their equipment over the long haul. We specifically design our iron and steel mill oils and greases to meet or exceed industry and original equipment manufacturers' expectations. Our products are thoroughly tested before they are commercialized, and as a result, they are formulated to meet global quality standards and are compliant with rigorous ExxonMobil management systems for manufacturing, customer service, laboratories, safety, health, and the environment. For companies in the steel sector, our line-up of Mobil-branded greases is designed to deliver a number of key benefits. These include helping to increase equipment operating efficiency, potentially reduce energy and resource use, and extend oil life. As a result, companies can benefit in several ways. On the financial side, improved productivity can translate into increased bottom line benefits. From the operational side, increased equipment uptime can help translate into longer equipment life. From a health/safety standpoint, using appropriate Mobil-branded greases that deliver long-lasting performance can help minimize oil consumption and reduce the amount of time maintenance personnel need to conduct oil changes. All of these benefits go hand-in-hand. And that’s why ExxonMobil works so closely with the world’s leading equipment manufacturers. To ensure our greases deliver the optimum performance for their intended applications and that we deliver the highest level possible of application expertise. Q4. How do your products depict Energy efficiency? Energy efficiency is a key issue for companies in the manufacturing sector. Obviously, from an operating and financial perspective, reducing energy usage can have a positive impact on a company’s bottom line. Also, minimizing energy consumption can help companies demonstrate to their partners and customers that they are committed to sustainable practices. I am proud to say that the latest additions to our flagship Mobil SHC line of synthetic industrial lubricants not only deliver exceptional, longlasting performance and protection, they also feature valuable energy efficiency benefits. The latest additions to our Mobil SHC family include the next generation of our popular Mobil SHC 600 Series of synthetic, circulating lubricants, and the Mobil SHC Gear Series, a family of supreme performance synthetic, industrial gear oils.
