Sustainable SILKOLENE
Leading UK based motorcycle lubricant manufacturer SILKOLENE continues to break new ground in the development of sustainable packaging.
After switching all plastic 4 litre and 20 litre packaging to the 100% recyclable Lube Cube, the company says it has now saved over 1,000,000 kg of plastic since the launch of the concept in 2012.
Following on from this success, SILKOLENE is now trialling a 1 litre engine oil pouch which uses up to 80% less plastic than conventional plastic packaging and significantly reduces waste.
SILKOLENE has been trialling these pouches across its local dealer network in the UK to gain valuable feedback from end users.
Joost Van Genderen, Head of SILKOLENE, said: "We are thrilled to be ramping up our sustainability journey by developing the 1 litre pouch. The introduction of the 4 litre and 20 litre Lube Cubes have been extremely well received by both our trade customers and end users - based on what we have found out so far we are confident that this 1 litre pouch will prove just as popular." The 1 litre pouch is now available for SILKOLENE SUPER 4 10W-40.
