    In Svc Tnk 2008 Tax Incentive for Capital Equipment
    Recoup Significant Costs of Purchase

    UNIST Lubrication Systems are proven to reduce cost and are known for providing early payback based solely on their performance in metals manufacturing. Now that payback is enhanced even more with recently passed tax legislation that provides an expanded expense which can be taken by small / medium sized businesses during the first year of a capital equipment purchase.

    The AMT (Association for Manufacturing Technology) has made the following information sheet available on their web site, and provided it to member companies like UNIST to inform customers and industry partners.

In the US, many of the same initiatives have only been suggestions, leaving some manufacturers to make changes / improvements and others to remain with the status quo. Lubes 'N Greases addresses whether this may be changing and how.
