Ester Base Fluids

The Vessel General Permit (VGP) allows for the use of vegetable esters, synthetic esters, polyalkylene glycols and biodegradable olefins. It also allows for the use of environmentally acceptable lubricants that are in compliance with existing international eco-labelling schemes. Our brochure gives detailed information about the VGP legislation, as well as an overview comparing the criteria of the global eco-labelling schemes.
