‘First of its kind’ EAL
RSC Bio Solutions, a global leader in environmentally acceptable lubricants (EALs) and cleaners, has launched a new product line of bio-based lubricants.
The FUTERRA range of products is apparently the only hydrocarbon renewable EAL derived from a plant-based material, meaning that it meets the most stringent global environmental regulations.
“FUTERRA is the clear choice for risk mitigation in sensitive areas without sacrificing performance, quality or cost-effectiveness,” said Mike Guggenheimer, president and CEO, RSC Bio Solutions.
“We believe that forward-looking and operationally efficient ship management teams will be keenly interested in this new technology as they anticipate future trends.”
He added that FUTERRA offers outstanding performance in both wet and dry environments, holds up to extreme conditions in contact with water in high-pressure and extreme temperatures and has a high durability compared to other EALs, which results in greater system efficiency, fewer change-outs and extended equipment life.
