The link between maintenance and a more sustainable world

Most of what we talk about in maintenance is how to maintain machines. But everything requires maintenance. Our businesses. Our communities. Our planet. Everything.

But maintenance rarely gets credit for this. Actually, it rarely gets credit for anything.

That needs to change.

@katie.allen, Fiix’s Sustainability and Social Impact Manager, explored how maintenance creates a more sustainable world and how it fuels the triple bottom line (People, Planet, and Profit). Check out her piece here http://bit.ly/3q8GZw4

This blog is a great read! I particularly liked this section 👍

We focused so heavily on reduce, reuse, and recycle that we forgot the most important ‘R’: Repair — the act of looking after your stuff...Maintenance and repair is regarded as a mundane practice in our society instead of being recognized as a sustainable approach to product consumption and creation. While we focus on the next, new, shiny thing, we forget the infrastructure, products, and equipment we already have.
