Revolutionizing technical lubricants

NEOL Copper Technologies Limited is a hard-science company dedicated to developing, testing, and manufacturing innovative technical lubricants, which are better for machines, and kinder to our environment. NEOL’s lubricants are formulated using synthetic base oils additised with our proprietary copper filming technology, CuGlideTM.
We want to oil the machines and grease the wheels in a way that they don’t age, break, loose energy efficiency and emit toxic substances.

Transforming the global lubricants industry

With our technology, we produce lubricants with exceptional anti-wear properties, while being free from harmful sulphated ash, phosphorus, and sulphur (no-SAPS) – driving transformation in the conservative global lubricants industry which has existed, largely unchanged, for over a century.

Developing technologies for a sustainable future

In today’s world, it’s increasingly important for humans, machines, and nature to be resourceful. We all strive to achieve our own goals, and want to feel confident along the way. But we must also learn how to do this while preserving the precious resources given to us by nature.

At NEOL, we deeply understand the value of these reserves, which is why we create technologies that extend the lifespan of equipment and help protect both natural and human resources.

Our values

At NEOL we have a clear vision: to drive positive change in the global lubricants industry with new technology that preserves both human and natural resources.

Our mission is one we embrace wholeheartedly, and our values are the principles that help guide us on this journey:

Sustainability

Our number one priority is to develop solutions that are not only innovative, but sustainable as well. We are committed to developing copper filming technologies that minimise machine wear, thereby extending their lifecycle and reducing waste. Our lubricant technology also avoids the generation of toxic by-products, contributing to a cleaner, healthier environment.

We seek to make a difference and ensure future generations can continue to thrive in a eco-friendly world.

Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG)

ESG principles are integral to our business approach. We recognise that our responsibility extends beyond technological advancements.

Therefore, we strive to minimise our environmental footprint, foster a positive social impact and uphold the highest standards of governance and ethics.

Safety

Our commitment to safety permeates through everything we do and influences every decision we make. We use organic copper salts, instead of relying on toxic phosphorus and sulphur compounds, allowing NEOL oils to be safely recycled and (in some cases) be fully biodegradable.

Our safety-first approach isn’t just to protect us or our clients, but helps to safeguard the world for future generations.
