ERIKS North America-owned company Lewis-Goetz's Industrial Hose Maintenance Management Program has saved customers $9.7 million over three years, according to a recent study.
Lewis-Goetz, which operates under the name ERIKS Industrial Services in Canada, designed the Industrial Hose Maintenance Management Program for plants to increase productivity and improve safety, while also reducing the total cost of ownership for hoses and related coupling products. The comprehensive program includes regular hose surveying and testing, as well as safety, maintenance and inspection training sessions.
