Castrol Launches CORE for Integrated Data Center Thermal Management

Castrol has launched Castrol CORE, a new end-to-end thermal management offering for data centers, responding to the growing demand driven by artificial intelligence and high-performance computing. The service aims to assist customers in managing increasingly complex cooling needs, from initial design through to daily operations.

Castrol CORE signifies a shift from a product-centric approach to cooling to an integrated, service-oriented offering. This new model combines cooling technology, lifecycle support, and new design capabilities. Castrol states that customers are increasingly seeking experienced partners capable of simplifying the complex cooling requirements of data centers.

The offering features Castrol's validated cooling technology, tested and approved by leading chip and hardware manufacturers. Supported by a global network spanning over 150 countries, Castrol provides support throughout a facility's lifecycle. The company asserts this approach reduces the complexity of coordinating multiple vendors and mitigates the risk of costly downtime.

"Our customers are no longer looking for just another isolated product. They are looking for experienced partners to help them with the entire spectrum of thermal management challenges," said Peter Huang, Global President of Data Centres and Thermal Management at Castrol. The company has already undertaken pilot projects in China and is collaborating with global operators on similar initiatives.
