Following a presentation by Russ, the group then were given a factory tour to see the complete manufacturing process - delivery of Raw Materials through to final packing warehouse as well as the Quality Control and R&D laboratories. FUCHS packaging innovation the 5 litre and 20 litre Lube Cube were of particular interest to the visitors
A spot of fun during lunch was provided, a touring car simulator challenge, by FUCHS sponsored British Touring Car Championship Team Ciceley Motorsport - driver Adam Morgan and Commercial Director Norman Burgess. Adam provided the first lap and challenged the visitors to try and beat his time. Adam said that some were ‘a little too close for comfort’!
