The plastics industry must be able to rely on smoothly running systems such as injection moulding machines or extruders when manufacturing high-quality products, regardless whether it’s for single items or large quantities. Resource efficiency also plays a central role, especially with regards to the high energy requirements in plastics processing. With our decades of expertise in lubricants and our comprehensive service programme, we can uncover potential savings and optimise your production processes. We focus on sustainable, tailor-made lubrication concepts, which our application engineers will individually adapt to your systems.

The right selection and monitoring of lubricants can extend oil life, shorten preheating times, improve system cleanliness and reduce energy consumption and CO2 emissions. This reduces your material, energy and disposal costs as well as your maintenance and repair costs. As a result, plant productivity increases as does occupational safety thanks to fewer interventions. Our sustainable lubrication concepts also help to achieve company energy management goals, e.g. certification according to DIN EN ISO 50001.

Our comprehensive product portfolio includes high-performance Mobil™ hydraulic, gear and compressor oils as well as greases and Mabanol coolants for your tool shop. They are characterised by extremely long tool life, excellent component protection and increased availability and service life of your machines. Optimised in terms of energy efficiency, the high-performance oils of the Mobil DTE 10 Excel™ Series, Mobil SHC™ Gear Series and Mobil SHC™ 600 Series can significantly reduce your energy requirements and rising energy costs by increasing efficiency and lowering the oil temperature. This allows us to achieve demonstrable savings of up to 6%, making sustainable increases in productivity possible. It goes without saying that Mobil™ oils and greases meet the specifications of the leading machine and plant manufacturers.

Our extensive range of services for the plastics industry extends from oil analysis and questions of energy efficiency, to minimising the variety of products needed and ultra-fine filtration right through to coolant services. These are only some of our many Fluid Management services.

Take advantage of our expertise to achieve maximum productivity for systems such as injection moulding machines, extruders, air compressors, etc. and accomplish your company's profitability and sustainability goals.

Are you curious about the savings potential to be found in your systems? Calculate your individual energy saving potential if you switch to high-performance lubricants.

Plant Data

Your energy savings potential

Savings per plant in year 1

Total savings in year 1

Savings calculations are based on average empirical values and take into account a possible oil price difference.

Additional savings through reduced replacement, downtime and disposal costs due to longer oil change intervals are not taken into account and can increase the real savings potential even further.

Actual results may depend on the type of machine used and how it is maintained, operating and environmental conditions, and the lubricant previously used. This information is supplied without liability.

We would be happy to offer you a field test to increase energy efficiency. Such tests include previous calculations, support when changing the oil in the system components and regular oil analysis, as well as complete documentation and an evaluation of the results following the test phase. These results can also be used as part of the (re-)certification of your energy management system according to ISO 50001.
