Special application lubricants for railway traffic

Most people would agree that rail is considered one of the most environmentally sustainable ways to travel, and it’s also a good option for reducing carbon dioxide emissions.

Since with essentially all railway lubricants there is a risk of leakage into land and water, there are now demands on using biodegradable lubricants. Northern Europe was early to start looking for sustainable solutions, and several cities are already fully up and running with a transition towards a more futureproof product portfolio of EU-certified products. This is part of the reason why the Nordics are leaders in the field both in terms of knowledge and development.

FUCHS has a wide range to meet every need in the entire railway segment, and can help to find the best solutions to the different challenges faced by rolling stock operators and infrastructure owners.
