Lube up renewably

Finnish oil refining and marketing company Neste has introduced a new lubricant product family – Neste ReNew – in Finland, Sweden, the Baltic countries, and Poland.

“Neste’s goal is to help customers reduce their greenhouse gas emissions by at least 20 million tonnes annually by 2030 with renewable and circular economy solutions,” says Joni Pihlström, who leads business-to-business sales in Neste’s marketing and services business unit in Finland.

“Both our corporate and private customers consider it important to curb climate change with solutions based on renewable raw materials, renewable energy, and the circular economy. We can offer them a wide range of tools for this. The new Neste ReNew lubricant product family complements our offering of more sustainable solutions,” he continues.

For almost 40 years, Neste has been researching and developing lubricants that work even in demanding conditions and increase the performance and energy efficiency of engines and hydraulics. Neste’s existing lubricant solutions cover various motor oils for light and heavy-duty vehicles, agricultural motor oils, hydraulic oils, industrial lubricants, and lubricating greases.

The new Neste ReNew product family also contains renewable or re-refined base oils and includes high-quality motor oils for gasoline and diesel engines of cars, vans, and hybrids, as well as universal tractor oil and hydraulic oils for agriculture and machinery.

“Lubricants play a role in reducing carbon footprint. The new Neste ReNew lubricants are a drop-in solution with which one can replace most lubricants of corresponding performance,” says Pihlström. “Adopting these more sustainable alternatives is therefore easy. With their choice of lubricants, our customers can take a step towards a more sustainable future and ensure high performance of vehicles and machinery at the same time.”
