With the marine industry recognising the need for Environmentally Acceptable Lubricants the number of shipping companies using our products had grown significantly and resulted in us reaching the milestone of supplying the 1,000th vessel.
2013
Our EAL products were certified as VGP compliant.
Eleven years after 2002, the use of EALs in below-the-waterline equipment was mandated for vessels calling in US waters by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), in its 2013 Vessel General Permit (VGP) and our EALs were certified as VGP compliant.

As the result of growing demand we extended the range of our Environmentally Acceptable Lubricants to include the ECOSURE EAF range.
