The Problem: Frequent Fan Breakdowns

Before the switch, the company faced regular fan breakdowns that led to increased maintenance costs and costly downtime. In just one month, two major fan failures caused substantial disruptions to operations. However, after switching to Premalube Xtreme Grease, the company saw a remarkable improvement: no breakdowns for five months, significantly reducing maintenance needs and minimising downtime.

Total Savings Over Five Months

1. Savings on Labour Costs:
The company saved valuable labor hours and associated costs by eliminating the need for constant maintenance checks and repairs.

2. Savings from Avoided Fan Replacements and Labour:
With no fan replacements, the company avoided the high costs of purchasing new fans and the labour required for their installation, leading to considerable savings.

3. Significant Savings from Eliminating Downtime:
Previously, fan breakdowns led to significant downtime, with productivity cost losses reaching thousands every hour. With Premalube Xtreme Grease, the company was able to maintain continuous operations, effectively saving on lost productivity and associated costs.

Conclusion

Switching to Premalube Xtreme Grease has delivered a major boost to the company’s operations. By reducing fan breakdowns, cutting down on maintenance costs and eliminating downtime, the company has saved significant amounts of time and money. This investment has not only enhanced operational efficiency but has also reinforced the company’s position as a leader in the brick industry while safeguarding its bottom line.
