Tata Motors Commercial Vehicles and Castol India Limited signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) to jointly launch used oil circularity ecosystem across the lubricant value chain, the industrial lubricant maker said on Monday.
Under a pilot programme for used oil circularity ecosystem, the companies will build a traceable system for collecting, storing and channelising used engine oil from Tata Motors' authorised service network in Karnataka. The pact is aimed at addressing a long-standing gap in the responsible management of used oil, a material classified as hazardous waste.
