Are Ecotree biolubricants more expensive to use than traditional mineral based oils?
No. Because Ecotree biolubricants evaporate more slowly and adhere better to metal surfaces, end users often use lower quantities per application. Other cost benefits associated with biolubricants include reductions in environmental and safety penalties in the event of spills, and maintenance costs and disposal fees. Furthermore since Ecotree biolubricants have a naturally high viscosity index, they don’t thin as readily as petroleum oils in warm temperatures, thus allowing some lubricants to last longer. They also possess superior natural lubricity which results in less equipment wear. As is the case with many plant-based products, once factors such as these are considered, you will find that Ecotree biolubricants are extremely cost competitive when compared against traditional mineral based lubricant usage.
