Compressed-air blog debuts

Atlas Copco Compressors launched a new blog called The Fifth Utility blog to serve as a comprehensive resource of news and insights for compressed air professionals.

“We named our blog ‘The Fifth Utility’ as a tongue-in-cheek way of recognizing that our news and insights about the compressed air industry, commonly referred to as ‘The Fourth Utility’ behind water, gas and electricity because of the critical functionality it provides to so many manufacturing processes, is a beneficial resource for readers who rely on compressed air,” spokesman Paul Humphreys said in a statement. “Much like a golfer stops in at the 19th hole after a round to share stories with his or her fellow loopers, our blog serves as a virtual clubhouse for the compressed air industry to talk shop and share information and anecdotal stories about our industry.”

The blog serves as a resource guide for energy-saving tips, sustainable manufacturing best practices, industry news, and links to interesting articles that have relevance with the compressed air community.
