Industrial Demand to Drive Value-Pool Growth
End users of industrial lubricants include oil & gas industry, manufacturing industry, railway & marine as well as heavy equipment manufacturing. Among these, the oil & gas industry is estimated to capture major share in the global industrial lubricants market. In the oil & gas industry, onshore and offshore activities face extreme temperature variations, resulting in the need for unplanned downtime for maintenance and repair. Lubricants help in maximizing service life of machine components and enhancing energy efficiency.
Additionally, lubricants used in the manufacturing industry help expand the lifespan of bearings and machineries. Thus, production costs, time, and manpower requirement are reduced, and operations become more efficient and reliable.
Collectively, oil & gas and manufacturing industry segments accounted for more than half of the total global industrial lubricants market volume share in 2018.

Bio-based Lubricants Hold Double Digit Growth Potential
Several tons of synthetic lubricants are washed off into water bodies creating negative impact on the environment and causing health-related issues.
Biodegradable sources such as edible oils are used to manufacture bio-based lubricants. Aside from the environmental advantages, bio-based lubricants provide better lubrication, superior viscosity/pressure performance, and lower volatility. Rising fuel economy as well as emission regulations for synthetic lubricants across the world are projected to bolster bio-based lubricants demand.
