In a recent conversation with Wind Systems Magazine, Castrol® expert David DiNunzio shares insights from one of the most comprehensive long-term lubricant field trials in the wind industry. Independently validated by DNV, the study highlights how advanced drivetrain lubrication can boost power generation, improve profitability, and unlock greater asset value. 👉 Read the full article to see how proven lubrication strategies are delivering measurable gains across wind operations: https://on.bp.com/4dlsSz3 #Castrol #CastrolIndustrial #WindEnergy #WindPower

The moments you don’t plan for are the ones that really define reliability — and the team behind it. Last week at MACH 2026, a KUKA robot needed on-site support to keep conversations moving. The Certas Lubricant Solutions team, our authorised distributor partner, were on hand with Castrol Molub-Alloy paste to fix the issue. In environments like this, even the smallest of disruptions can escalate quickly. What matters is how effectively they are handled — and the people who make that happen. Thank you Certas Lubricant Solutions. Reliability isn’t optional — it’s critical, in any environment. #Reliability #Automation #Manufacturing #Uptime

In high-speed cold heading operations, extreme pressure and poor lubrication can quickly lead to die wear, surface defects, and rising scrap rates. These issues directly impact part quality, tool life, and operating costs. Castrol Iloform 168 IN can handle these challenges effectively. Its high-performance extreme pressure additives protect dies under heavy loads, while excellent detergency keeps metallic fines away from tooling surfaces. The result is improved surface finish, reduced rework, extended die life, and lower overall consumption.
