How are you regulated?

Regulatory enforcement in the lubricants industry is a growing challenge from a global scale down to a local level. Social interests and priorities vary amongst countries, affecting how those regulations are enforced. For example, meeting international requirements compared to complying within the United States can greatly differ, so it’s vital to have resources available to stay up-to-date on the strict policies.

— Jennifer Gibson, vice president of regulatory affairs, NACD
