  Source and promote a product range to minimise the environmental impact of both production and distribution whilst reducing power consumption in the production of all materials
  Meet or exceed environmental legislation that relates to our industry
  TRIBOFOOD manufacture a full range of biodegradable oils, greases and non-toxic lubricants for use in a wide variety of industries and applications from biodegradable hydraulic and chain saw oils, to cleaner and safer agricultural and rail industry lubricants, thereby helping to reduce the environmental impact of the materials we supply.
  By ensuring our customers are using the optimum lubricant for their application we reduce overall lubricant consumption and wastage due to unnecessary re-lubrication and lubricant replacement. Synthetic lubricants for example, can extend life expectancy several times over a conventional mineral oil based lubricant.
