Houghton FLUIDCARE® is a comprehensive chemical management program for manufacturers
who want to reduce—and avoid—costs, improve process control and enhance finished-product quality. The key to its success is that it rewards process control rather than chemical
usage. Houghton employs true chemical management experts who start by base lining ones cost per production unit, and then systematically takes steps to reduce that cost. By improving
part quality and increasing efficiency, FLUIDCARE® enables one to provide customers with a better end product at a more competitive price. Houghton’s electronic chemical management
system HOUGHTO-TREND® provides a complete chemical usage picture as well as operational performance snapshots in real-time. Only FLUIDCARE customers have access to this innovative web-based
system, making it easy for managers to track and trend their chemical usage and performance data. Find out how many gallons of various fluids are used per year and if those amounts vary
widely by department; if the amount of tramp oil in the coolant system is increasing over time; what products are being used and at what concentration; if your waste reduction program
is a success; how your tooling costs are trending; and so much more.
The Houghton FLUIDCARE program is most successful when introduced to the plant as a partnership rather than just another chemical-supplier relationship. In addition, Houghton’s technical
resources to support its products and services are second to none in the industry. Our broad range of services including environmental management, waste treatment services and management
of current Industrial Hygiene issues such as Myco bacteria.
FLUIDCARE is driven by the dual concepts of cost avoidance and process efficiency. These are the principles that direct every one of our customer’s programs and are proven to be an effective
path to chemical management success.
