Sustainability at LANOTEC
Better performance without the environmental cost
LANOTEC creates high performance lubricants and cleaners that protect equipment, reduce waste and help people work more safely. Our products are powered by lanolin, the natural oil from sheep wool, and are designed to replace traditional petroleum based products that are harsh on people and the environment.
Powered by lanolin - the natural advantage
Lanolin is renewable and biodegradable. It forms a powerful protective barrier against rust, corrosion, salt and moisture while remaining safe to use around people, animals and food preparation areas. By choosing LANOTEC, you are choosing products that reduce chemical exposure while delivering serious performance.
Sourced from the Australian wool industry
Our lanolin ingredients come from the Australian wool industry. This supports local farmers and utilises a natural substance that would otherwise go to waste. Every batch is refined to meet strict quality and consistency standards before becoming the active ingredient in LANOTEC products.
