Life Cycle Assessments
One of the most important aspects of any sustainable and renewable products is the processes by which they are created and being able to certify that they are truly sustainable products. With Evolve Lubricants’ certified life cycle assessments, products are tracked from cradle to gate which base oils yield a carbon-negative rating. Not only does this provide the ability to ensure that the products are sustainable, but allows for the future eligibility of carbon credit distribution to those who use these products.
These life cycle assessment results for Evolve Lubricants’ synthetic finished lubricants present significantly better environmental benefits than all other oils, both conventional and synthetic. Due to the unique characteristic of being a hydrocarbon-based product but synthesized from sustainable and renewable plant-based feedstock, our finished lubricant’s base oil life cycle assessment can achieve carbon negative footprint results.
USDA Biobased Products
Biobased Products Defined
A biobased product was defined in the Farm Security and Rural Investment Act of 2002 as follows:
The term ‘biobased product’ means a product determined by the Secretary [of Agriculture] to be a commercial or industrial product (other than food or feed) that is composed, in whole or in significant part, of biological products or renewable domestic agricultural materials (including plant, animal, and marine materials) or forestry materials or an intermediate feedstock.
In plain language, biobased products are derived from plants and other renewable agricultural, marine, and forestry materials. Evolve Lubricants provide a prime example of a biobased product as an alternative to conventional petroleum derived products. Biobased products include diverse categories such as lubricants, cleaning products, inks, fertilizers, and bioplastics. For purposes of the BioPreferred Program, biobased products do not include food, animal feed, or fuel.
Helping Bring Sustainability To Individuals & Companies
Environmental, social, and governance concerns are important to corporate strategy and global societal objectives. Policies and mandates established by governments in the U.S., U.K., EU, Australia, and Japan are now receiving serious attention.
People today are increasingly aware of ESG criteria and the environmental impacts that products cause. Having suitable solutions to reach the goal of decarbonization and sustainability is now universally accepted and expected.
Evolve’s product line will allow companies to move towards a more sustainable future. We are delighted to help others reach their varying goals of decarbonization and high performance with sustainability through:
