Pressure to perform: future-proofing hydraulic fluids While many hydraulic trends are long-standing, a new pressure is poised to bring fundamental change to the industrial fluids market. The European Green Deal is set to bring significant change to the chemical industry making chemicals much more challenging and expensive to import, handle and use within Europe. Restrictions on the use of high hazard substances and the requirements to increase circularity and reduce carbon footprint bring challenges to existing well-established lubricant formulations.? This article explores how we believe that now is the time for hydraulic fluid manufacturers to work with their base oil and additive suppliers to develop and test future-proof solutions. Helping to ensure that fluid portfolios remain appropriately labelled and focused on end-user needs.
