FUCHS has the world's most diverse portfolio of bio-lubricants, ranging from basic chainsaw oil to high performance engine oil. Many of our biodegradable products carry the European environmental label (Euro-Marguerite). New series of biodegradable hydraulic and gear oils were developed within the PLANTO range on the basis of saturated ester. The proportion of renewable raw materials is greater than 50% here, and the products have demonstrated their performance in the field.

In addition to this, FUCHS plays an active part in the European standardization process for bio-based lubricants. Among other things, this includes work on terminology, as well as determining the bio-based content, sustainability criteria, eco-auditing and certification. A FUCHS employee leads a work group of the European Committee for developing a general standard for bio-lubricants.
