Lubricants for Mining applications

Equipment working at mining sites need to perform reliably and efficiently, without major breakdown and other issues. Safe and efficient operation is imperative for mining equipment to increase productivity and safety in mining operations. Lubricants play a major role in this by minimising wear and tear of machinery parts and safeguard the equipment in the harshest conditions.

MAKING mining smooth

Equipment downtime cannot afford in mining operations as in most cases, mining sites are in remotest of locations and it may consume a lot of time in maintenance of the equipment.

Optimising efficiency

With the construction, mining and infrastructure projects are growing faster, there is a growing demand for productive and efficient equipment in various projects. This will boost the demand for technologically superior lubricants to meet the industry needs.

Lubes of the Future

Construction and infrastructure sector in India is gaining new momentum as the aggressive push by the government has scaled up the infrastructure development across the country.

Optimal Solutions
