Project Description
  • COMPANY

    Jansma Wegen en Milieu, based in Drachten, specializes in all types of civil engineering, road construction, water management, and environmental works. The company originated in the mid-1920s in the earth and sand trade.
    Over the years, it has grown into a very versatile and modern company with approximately 100 dedicated and trained professionals.
    In response to the growing awareness that the environment is essential for the future, Jansma has expanded its expertise to include environmental technology in addition to civil engineering, road construction, and water management. The operational area, in which the various disciplines are carried out, is extensive and covers the entire northern Netherlands.

  • CHALLENGE

    Jansma Wegen en Milieu uses a Deutz® TCD2012 L06 roller. The roller consumed one liter of Kroon oil per 60 hours of use.

  • SOLUTION

    In January 2008, Frank Kleijn suggested using SWEPCO 306 Supreme Formula Engine Oil for the roller to significantly reduce its consumption. After the oil consumption for the roller visibly decreased, in June 2008, the tractor was also switched to SWEPCO 306 Supreme Formula Engine Oil 15W-40.

  • RESULTS

    With SWEPCO 306 Supreme Formula Engine Oil:

  • COMMENTARY

    “We had been using Kroon oil for 44 years and couldn’t imagine that another engine oil could drastically reduce oil consumption. We wanted to experience the difference with these machines, as they had a relatively high oil consumption. The result exceeded expectations. This test clearly shows that there are significant benefits to using a better oil. These machines will therefore continue to use SWEPCO 306 engine oil in the future.” – Mr. D. Lap, Head of the Maintenance Department.

    Jansma Wegen en Milieu B.V. in Drachten has been using SWEPCO lubricants since 2008.
