Bio-based lubricants, also known as bio-lubes or bio-lubricants, are a range of lubricants made from vegetable oils, like canola, rapeseed, sunflower, palm, coconut oil and soybean, as well as animal fat.
They are used to reduce friction between the surfaces of moving parts in any machinery or equipment to reduce heat generation. Bio-based lubricants are specially used in machinery with heavy loss of oil into the environment, total-loss lubricant systems, like two-stroke engines, railroad flanges, chainsaw bars, dust suppressants, and cables.
Bio-based lubricants are also more preferred for machinery operated in environmentally sensitive areas, such as in and around water bodies.
Owing to their significantly low environmental footprint, zero toxicity, and low operation and maintenance costs during product life-cycle, bio-based lubricants are anticipated to witness a significant rise in demand during the forecast period.

Bio-Based Lubricants: Market Dynamics
Bio-based lubricants have been gaining significant importance in a number of industries as they are highly biodegradable, has less toxic effect on environment, low skin problems on personnel and low maintenance costs, as compared to mineral oil or petroleum lubricants.
Use of bio-based lubricants significantly reduces pollution in storm water from leaks in brake lines, engines, and hydraulic systems. Due to this, many European countries have made it mandatory to use bio-based lubricants, especially in environmentally sensitive areas.
Bio-based lubricants when compared to petroleum lubricants, evaporate slower and have better adherence to metal surfaces, making them outperform and last longer than petroleum lubricants. In case of spills or leaks into environmental, penalties incurred to operator are much less than that of petroleum lubricants.
These factors have been driving the adoption of bio-based lubricants among a number of industries, like power generation, metal working, metallurgy, mining, and oil & gas, among others.
Introduction of various tax incentives promoting the use of bio-based lubricants has been prominent in developed countries and the trend is set to be adapted by developing countries like India and China as well.
In terms of base oil type, vegetable oils segment is anticipated to thrive in the global bio-based lubricants market, as they are most sought out product type in a large number of applications due to their superior oxidative stability as compared to animal fat based lubricants.
