Introducing ONOS, the first biodegradable lubricant range from TYGRIS. Engineered for a sustainable future, ONOS delivers exceptional performance across diverse industries like forestry, marine, and agriculture.
Environmental Benefits of Using Biodegradable Lubricants
Biodegradable lubricants are a game-changer in reducing pollution. When these lubricants inevitably spill or leak, they break down naturally, minimising harm to ecosystems. Unlike conventional oils that can persist in the environment for years, biodegradable options decompose much faster, reducing the risk of long-term damage.
Moreover, these lubricants help conserve non-renewable resources. Traditional lubricants rely heavily on petroleum, a finite resource. By opting for biodegradable alternatives, industries can lessen their dependency on petroleum, thereby conserving these precious resources for future generations.
Industries embracing biodegradable lubricants demonstrate a strong commitment to sustainability.
This move not only benefits the planet but also enhances a company's reputation. Consumers and partners increasingly favour businesses that prioritise environmental responsibility, making the switch to biodegradable lubricants a wise strategic choice.


Efficiency Improvements
Biodegradable lubricants are not just about being green; they also deliver outstanding performance. Our range of ONOS lubricants provide superior lubrication under extreme conditions, such as high temperatures and pressures, which can be demanding for conventional oils. This capability ensures machinery runs smoothly, reducing wear and tear and prolonging equipment life.
Moreover, opting for biodegradable lubricants can lead to improved energy efficiency. These lubricants often require less energy to pump and circulate, which can reduce the overall energy consumption of machinery. This reduction not only saves money but also lessens an organisation's carbon footprint, aligning with sustainability goals.
Marine Industry
The marine industry faces some of the strictest environmental regulations, and for good reason. Spills in this sector can have devastating effects on aquatic ecosystems. Biodegradable lubricants meet these stringent requirements, offering a solution that significantly reduces environmental impact.
Marine operators who adopt these lubricants contribute to healthier oceans and waterways.
By minimising the risk of long-lasting oil spills, they help preserve marine biodiversity. This commitment to sustainability not only protects the environment but also enhances the industry's reputation.
Furthermore, using biodegradable lubricants can lead to cost savings for marine operators. With fewer environmental compliance issues and potential fines, companies can allocate resources more efficiently. This transition also aligns with global efforts to protect our oceans, making it a strategic choice for forward-thinking marine businesses.


Agriculture Industry
In the agriculture sector, the use of biodegradable lubricants supports sustainable farming practices. These lubricants play a crucial role in ensuring machinery operates efficiently, reducing the need for frequent repairs and replacements. This reliability is vital for farmers who depend on their equipment for timely planting and harvesting.
Moreover, adopting biodegradable lubricants can enhance a farm's sustainability credentials. Consumers are increasingly interested in the environmental impact of their food. By using eco-friendly lubricants, farmers can appeal to this growing market segment, potentially boosting their brand and profits.
Manufacturing Industry
In the manufacturing sector, biodegradable lubricants help reduce waste. Traditional lubricants can contribute significantly to industrial waste, but biodegradable options decompose naturally, lessening the burden on waste management systems. This reduction in waste not only conserves resources but also aligns with zero-waste initiatives.
These lubricants also enhance operational efficiency. With superior lubrication properties, biodegradable options can improve machinery performance, leading to faster production times and higher output. This efficiency is crucial in a competitive market where every second counts.
