Unearth the benefits of GG Friction Antidote – An investment that pays off and your benefits at a glance:
Innovative tribological solutions are our passion. We’re proud to offer unmatched friction reduction for a better environment and a quick return on your investment. Through personal contact and consultation, we offer reliable service, support and help our clients to be successful in all industries and markets.
Profitability:
Switching over to a high-performance lubricant pays off although purchasing costs may seem higher at first, less maintenance and longer vehicles/machinery parts lifecycle may already mean less strain on your budget in the short to medium term.
Continuous production processes and predictable maintenance intervals reduce production losses to a minimum. Consistently high lubricant quality ensures continuous, maintenance-free long-term lubrication for high plant availability. Continuous supply of fresh GG Friction Antidote treated lubricant to the lubrication points keeps friction low and reduces energy costs.
Safety:
Longer lubrication intervals reduce the frequency of maintenance work and the need for your staff to work in danger zones. Lubrication systems can therefore considerably reduce occupational safety risks in work areas that are difficult to access.
Reliability:
GG Friction Antidote treated lubricants ensure reliable, clean and precise lubrication around the clock. Plant availability is ensured by continuous friction reduction of the application. Lubrication with GG Friction Antidote treated lubricants help to prevent significant rolling bearing failures.
Need a good ROI? How about 3,900%?
It may sound too outrageous to be true, but the Institute of Mechanical Engineers estimates every $1,000 spent on proper lubrication yields $40,000 in savings.
