Reducing emissions in a simple way

Reducing emissions in a simple way is an important goal in today’s world. Efforts are being made everywhere to significantly reduce emissions from factories, ships, and especially cars. Unfortunately, mostly symbolic measures are taken, such as lowering the maximum speed. These are generally politically driven actions that have limited effect and hardly contribute to a substantial reduction of emissions.

At Southwestern Petroleum Corporation^®, we have been working for years on solutions that truly make a significant and sustainable impact. We focus on total maintenance costs and energy consumption, including the associated emissions. Through optimal lubrication, we reduce friction, decrease the need to replace parts, save on lubricants, and significantly extend oil life. This leads to a reduction in electricity consumption by 3 to 12% or more, and fuel savings of 4 to 10% or more. Altogether, this results in less emissions and lower energy and fuel costs for both individuals and businesses.

The efforts of Southwestern Petroleum Corporation^® have not gone unnoticed and have led the independent leading institute Energy Star^® to recognize the effects of these lubricants. Southwestern Petroleum Corporation^® is the only manufacturer in the world to be named an Energy Star^® Partner. More and more companies across Europe are also experiencing the benefits of these products, resulting in a huge increase in demand for SWEPCO^® lubricants.
