Quality, Sustainability, Health and Safety

Mecoil Diagnosi Meccaniche Srl operates in the field of analysis of lubricants in operation, with the aim of monitoring the possible evolution of anomalies through the oil and consequently monitoring the machines in which the fluid operates.

With this in mind, our main goal is the total customer satisfaction, and that is why for 25 years we are have been monitoring our processes, taking corrective and preventive actions during all steps of our activities, with the aim to continuously improve our quality standards.

Mecoil got its first quality certification in 1997, according to ISO 9003:1994; since then, Mecoil has been committed to implementing and maintaining a state-of-the-art Quality Management System, in accordance with European standards. From there on, Mecoil has adapted its processes to the increasingly stringent requirements imposed by the evolution of the ISO 9001 regulation, up to the current vision 2015. Mecoil is the only Italian company with a specific QMS certification for the analysis of used lubricating oil, with the following scope:

“Execution of chemical-physical analysis and diagnostics on industrial oils for predictive maintenance”.

Recently, Mecoil has undertaken the certification process of the Integrated Management System also including the workers’ health and safety, according to ISO 45001:2018, obtaining the certification in October 2024.

Furthermore, we have decided to formalize our commitment for a Sustainable Development of the Planet, with Mecoil fully integrated and interconnected toward this goal of shared well-being

Mecoil is currently the only Italian laboratory participating in the International ASTM In-Service Oil Monitoring correlation program.

Mecoil and the environment

Mecoil is first in line for the protection of the environment, both at global level with strategic interventions, and at local level with specific interventions to safeguard our surrounding habitat.

We have to take into account that our Core Business is based on prevention of mechanical failures, and therefore on the protection of assets integrity: immediate consequence is the reduction of wastes coming from the activities of replacement of damaged components, and an easier management of their disposal.

The second area where we commit for environment safeguard, is the life extension of charges of oil, well beyond the usual planned maintenance limits, thanks to the analysis we perform that allow the deployment of their entire life. In this way, unnecessary stops of production cycle are avoided, and the functional integrity of the lube oil is preserved through maintenance best practises.

The third area of commitment is the minimization of environment impact in the activities of taking and following analysis of lube oil samples: from the patent and commercialization of a special vacuum bottle preventing possible spills, to the use of absolute minimum quantities (including experimentation of innovative test techniques) to reduce the disposal of oil and solvents, up to the rigorous management of the wastes allowing their correct disposal

And above all, in the company daily life, the continuous attention from all of us to reduce the use of not reusable plastics, to optimize the use of power and water resources, to limit the environmental impact of any choice we take.
