The global compressor oil market is projected to grow significantly in the coming years. Lifestyle changes, especially in developing regions, are driving the demand for food storage equipment and air conditioning. At the same time, legislation on refrigerants is continuously changing. The phasing out of ozone-depleting refrigerants continues and there is a strong move towards low GWP (Global Warming Potential) refrigerants.

New lubricants also need to be compatible with today’s increasingly sophisticated compressors and refrigerants. High-quality lubricants improve the compressor lifetime. With Perstorp raw materials you will be well-equipped to handle tough requirements.

The demands on improved energy efficiency as well as the shift towards biodegradability and sustainability are getting increasingly important. Perstorp offers polyol esters building blocks with a sharpened sustainability profile and supports customers that want to develop partly renewable polyol ester base stock or polyol esters with significantly lower carbon footprint.
