and lubricants
Lubricants play an indispensable role in ensuring the smooth and efficient operation of a diverse range of machinery and equipment across numerous industries. These lubricants typically consist of a blend of base oils and additives, with base oils forming around 90% of the composition. This combination allows lubricants to provide essential properties that reduce friction, dissipate heat, protect against wear and corrosion, and extend the lifespan of mechanical components.
The American Petroleum Institute (API) has established a comprehensive classification system that categorizes base oils into five distinct groups, each with specific characteristics and applications.
SUPPLIERS OF BASE OILS
Group I Base Oils:
Group I base oils are derived from solvent-refined and dewaxed mineral bases. These oils find application in a wide array of contexts, including industrial settings, grease production, gear mechanisms, and marine lubrication. Arvala stands as a reliable provider of Group I base oils, offering a diverse selection of grades such as SN 150, SN 250, SN 350, SN 500, Bright stocks, and more. These options are accessible through various distribution methods, including flexitanks, isotanks, intermediate bulk containers (IBCs), steel drums, trucks, and marine tankers.

Group V Base Oils:
Group V base oils encompass an extensive array of base oil types not covered by the previous categories. This group includes naphthenic base oils, synthetic esters, polyalkylene glycols (PAG), and others. Naphthenic base oils, particularly prevalent in transformer oils and metalworking fluids, are commonly used as supplements to enhance the properties of other base oils.
