BIOMAX™: High Performance EAL

Since 2012, BIOMAX™ has been at the forefront, providing a comprehensive line of Environmentally Acceptable Lubricants (EALs), meticulously created carefully composed? based on market insights and customer needs. One such product in the BIOMAX™ range is the BIOMAX HYDRAULIC OIL EAL, classified as HEPR (Hydraulic Oil Environmental PAO and Related Products) according to ISO 15380. This environmentally friendly PAO based hydraulic-, gear- and sterntube oil is specifically designed to offer high performance while maintaining biodegradability, making it ideal for sensitive environments. By achieving this high-performance lubrication and protection standards without sacrificing environmental benefits, BIOMAX™ sets a new standard in the industry and even often surpasses the performance of traditional non-EALs. The lubricants are performance driven, extending drain intervals and reducing downtime as well as being fully compatible with equipment seal elastomers.

BIOMAX™ Environmentally Acceptable Lubricant (EAL) demonstrates exceptional resilience under tough conditions, making it an ideal choice for heavy-duty marine, mining, construction, and other industrial applications where enclosed gear systems face severe operational stress like high temperatures, heavy and sliding load contact, and start-stop shock loading.

The benefits of BIOMAX™ EAL lubricants

BIOMAX™ bio-lubricants combine innovative technology with sustainable properties for optimal performance under demanding conditions. HEPR oils, made from synthetic polyalphaolefins (PAO), offer biodegradability and thermal stability, excelling in high-temperature environments while reducing wear and providing long-lasting protection. Their natural breakdown makes them a great choice for industries focused on reducing environmental impact. This is enhanced by Synerlec® technology, which creates a durable lubricating film that prevents metal-to-metal contact. Discover more about the benefits of BIOMAX’s biodegradable lubricants below.

Biodegradable: More than 60% biodegradable and with high biomass.
Non-bioaccumulative: Complies with all EcoLabel and EPA toxicity tests.
High thermal stability: Maintains viscosity at high temperatures thanks to synthetic base oils.
Synerlec® technology: Minimizes wear and extends the lifespan of both equipment and lubricants.
Excellent shock absorption: Prevents damage to gears and bearings.
Anti-corrosion properties: Extends the lifespan of components and prevents rust formation.
EU Ecolabel: Approved by the EU Ecolabel, which ensures compliance with the highest environmental laws and regulations.

The EU Ecolabel is the European environmental label for non-food products and services, designed to promote more sustainable production and consumption. This label is recognized by all countries of the European Union and confirms that BIOMAX™ bio-lubricants meet the strictest environmental requirements.
