High Performance Environmentally responsible Lubricants
BIOSTAT BIOBAR BIOTRANS BIOTAC The language of green Toxicity the ability of a substance to cause harmful effect across the marine food chain including algae, crustaceans and fish. Bioaccumulation the accumulation of substances within an organism.
To you, it s where you operate your business; To the planet, it s a precious environment Never has the marine industry been under greater social, moral and legislative pressure to minimise the impact of its activities on its environment: the seas and oceans of the world. As a result of normal ship operations it is inevitable that significant volumes of oil lubricants find their way into the Marine Environment. Although much of this comes from machinery spaces a significant proportion comes from stern tube leakage and deck machinery. Responsible ship operators, port authorities and regulators are embracing more environmentally responsible lubricants to mitigate the environmental impact of leakage. Marine are foremost in the delivery of advanced, high performance green lubricants. The pressure of legislation Regulatory authorities around the world are enforcing legislation that regulates the release of oil and chemicals into the marine environment. MARPOL 73/78 (International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships) sets the standard in marine environmental legislation around the world. Now, more and more regional, national and port regulations are also coming into effect such as reduced port fees for Green Ships. Enhance your competitive position Oil companies, vehicle manufactures and cruise tour operators are just some of the many customers of the Marine Industry who are demanding higher levels of environmental responsibility from their carriers above and beyond that required by legislation. The use of environmentally responsible lubricants can be a valuable asset in enhancing and promoting your companies green credentials to your customers. the business impact of oil leakage Your operations may be suspended You may be fined You will have to deal with time consuming paperwork and investigations Your reputation may be damaged Your relationship with your customers may be harmed
Protecting your vessel and the environment BioStat Stern Tube/Gear Oils BioStat is available in the following ISO viscosity grades 68cSt, cst, 22cSt Environmental Performance Low toxicity Low bioaccumulation 8% of the raw materials used in the BioStat range are derived from renewable resources

Compounds accumulate in living things when they are taken up and stored faster than they are broken down or excreted. Standard test methods for bioaccumulation OECD 117 measures the build up of organic chemicals. Chemicals with molecular weight > 7 classified as non-bio accumulating.
