Grease is a semi-solid lubricant used for protecting vessels, machines, vehicles and their components from corrosion, wear and tear. It contains performance-enhancing additives, lubricating fluids and thickeners. It is manufactured using rendered fat of waste animal parts, inedible lard and synthetic oil, or can be petroleum-derived containing a thickening agent. Grease acts as a sealant to minimize leakage of water and protects from contaminants. It assists in maintaining flexibility, protecting bearing surfaces, enhancing stop-start performance and reducing friction. It provides high thermal stability and wear resistance, enhanced rust-proofing performance, high viscosity index and corrosion protection. As a result, grease finds extensive application across various industries, such as automotive, chemical manufacturing, power generation, metallurgy, food and beverage.
Grease Market Trends:
Significant growth in the automotive industry across the globe is creating a positive outlook for the market. Grease is widely used to lubricate ball joints, tie-rod ends, suspension, chassis, control arm-shafts and U-joints. In line with this, the increasing demand for high-performance vehicles is favoring the market growth. In addition, grease protects various auto parts, such as switches, connectors, wheel bearings and gears from wear and tear due to its stability and temperature tolerance properties.
Moreover, various product innovations, such as the development of bio-based and environment-friendly grease manufactured using renewable, non-toxic materials with low sulfur levels, are providing a considerable boost to the market growth. Additionally, the widespread adoption of high-performance grease in wind power plants to remove residue and ensure cleaner operations is positively impacting the market growth. Apart from this, the implementation of various government initiatives to encourage the utilization of bio-based grease and the increasing product demand in the manufacturing sector are anticipated to drive the market toward growth.
