Market Overview:
Lubricants are capable of decreasing heat, wear, and friction when introduced as a film between sold surfaces. They exhibit superior properties such as corrosion protection, smooth functioning of mechanical parts, and demulsibility, which make them suitable for use in a wide application such as construction, marine, industrial, automotive, and others. Moreover, they are used to achieve optimum efficiency, and always ensure that everything from the main engine to secondary equipment runs smoothly irrespective of the work environment.
Some of the prominent factors that positively influence the growth of the lubricants market are rising construction and building activities in developing countries, increasing consumer spending on passenger cars, and growing consumption of bio-based lubricants. Furthermore, growing consumer awareness regarding the harmful effects of synthetic lubricants has shifted the consumer influence towards bio-based lubricants. Hence, increasing consumption of bio-based lubricants is estimated to drive the overall lubricant market over the estimated period. Moreover, increasing population along with increasing building & construction activities are driving the consumption of lubricants, which is predicted to propel the growth of the market.
