Advanced lubricants for transport and industry

Crown Oil, suppliers of road fuel and lubricants to transport, engineering, manufacturing, food and specialist industries, has become an authorised distributor of high quality lubricants from Q8Oils. The company will supply and provide technical service for a complete range of the Q8Oils premium quality branded lubricants complimenting the Crown Oil range of lubricants manufactured at their blending plant in Bury Lancashire. Mark Andrews, Crown Oil group general manager explained, "Q8Oils produce specially formulated lubricants for transport, manufacturing, food production and other industries. These advanced lubricants promote efficiency, extend plant life, safeguard the health of users and protect the environment. All the products carry extensive technical approvals and official endorsement. This is a new premium market segment for Crown Oil and one that fits comfortably within our existing business."

The advanced Q8Oils formulations safeguard the health of users in several ways. Cooling/cutting oils used in engineering are emulsion that in the past could become a potential bio-hazard. Q8Oils incorporate additives to overcome this potential problem safeguarding operators. Likewise food-safe lubricants and greases for use in food, dairy, beverage and brewing industries are free of anything that could introduce chemical taint or potentially harbour bacteria.

Crown Oil have a technical help desk, manned by experienced chemists and technicians, who are able to advise on the more unusual and challenging lubrication questions. A sales force of forty staff are undertaking a comprehensive training programme on the Q8Oils range, to ensure users are advised on the best lubricant for every situation.

Company chemist Riaz Amanjy explained, "Many companies are very traditional in selecting lubrication products. To take vehicle lubricants as an example, these can be degraded by temperature, fuel contamination, metal erosion in the engine or even the type journey that the vehicle does. Selecting the right lubricant can improve performance, permit extended service intervals and so contribute significantly to overall fleet efficiency."
