Publication Date: 2005
Lubricating grease (or grease, to use a short name), leaving aside synthetic grease for the moment, is arguably amongst the highest “value added” petroleum products. Lubricating greases play very crucial role in the performance of automobiles, industrial machinery and appliances which almost every one of us use, rely upon or work with everyday. Lubricating greases account for about 5% of the global consumption of the lubricants, which in turn account for about 1% of all petroleum products. Thus in volume terms, lubricating greases constitute a relatively small, specialized industry. Nonetheless, the importance of lubricating greases cannot be overemphasised. The world would quite literally grind to a halt without lubricating greases.
