Globally, there is an increasing awareness of the environmental impact of the large amount of lubricants entering the environment. Several countries have already started to restrict the use of mineral oil based products, especially in environmentally sensitive areas, and have required the use of biodegradable fluids. For protection of the environment, the use of environmentally friendly lubricants makes particular sense where either the risk of spillage is high or a total loss system is employed. However, the technical performance of such products must not be compromised, and the extension of lubricant life and equipment service can also contribute to the protection of our environment. In recent years, GB Lubricants has developed a number of biodegradable products, combining excellent lubricant performance with high biodegradability.
