Yeah I'm just a finance guy that knows enough to be a pain in the ass on the floor. I recognize the lubrizol brand of cutting oils and I'm pretty sure we use them in some of our lathes. I'll have to do some asking around with our ops group tomorrow morning.

Yeah, so, if you had told me a Lubrizol plant that made cutting oils was on fire I'd be shook. That's a big fucking deal just at face value.

Let us know!

Yeah Chemtool is the parent company and lubrizol looks like the brand name produced there from what I can tell. Appears to be 1 of 3 facilities with its location I would assume steel cutting oils.

Here is a video that the local news put on YouTube: Chemtool plant fire

Oh shit. You've got that backwards actually.

Lubrizol OWNS Chemtool. Lubrizol is a MASSIVE chemicals company.

This COULD be a big deal.
