As an independent base oil trader, distributor and supplier, we offer global availability of base oils to meet our customers’ technical, and global volume requirements. Our flexibility and strategic bulk storage facilities ensures supply meets demand.
From technical advisory services through to bespoke logistics solutions, we have a range of services to meet every need.
Base oil is an important component in the lubricants industry, with various applications in the production of lubricating oils, industrial fluids, and other chemical products. Our key business activities related to base oil:
Base Oil Production: We often produce base oil from crude oil through processes such as distillation and chemical treatment to create high-purity and quality oils.
Trade and Distribution: Businesses may import or manufacture base oil and then distribute it to lubricant manufacturers or other industries.
Research and Development: Invest in R&D to improve the quality of base oil, develop new products, or optimize production processes.
Compliance with Standards: We also need to adhere to international quality and safety standards, such as API (American Petroleum Institute) and ACEA (European Automobile Manufacturers Association).
VISCOSITY: Measure of a fluid's resistance to flow, critical for maintaining lubrication under various temperatures.
VISCOSITY INDEX: Indicates how much a fluid's viscosity changes with temperature; higher values are desirable for stability.
FLASH POINT: The temperature at which a fluid can vaporize to form an ignitable mixture in air; higher flash points are safer.
POUR POINT: The lowest temperature at which the oil remains fluid; lower pour points are essential for cold-weather performance.
Biodegradable Options: Some base oils are derived from renewable resources, like vegetable oils, which are biodegradable. This reduces the environmental impact compared to synthetic oils, which may persist in the environment for longer periods.
Lower Toxicity: Eco-friendly base oils often have lower toxicity levels, making them safer for both aquatic life and human health. This is especially important for applications where spills or leaks can occur.
Reduced Emissions: Using high-quality base oils can enhance the efficiency of engines and machinery, leading to lower fuel consumption and reduced greenhouse gas emissions.
Recycling and Reusing: Many base oils can be recycled and re-refined, minimizing waste and reducing the need for new raw materials, which helps conserve natural resources.
