Zeller+Gmelin at the 18th KWF Conference in Schwarzenborn

The lubricant experts from Zeller+Gmelin will be presenting their complete range of high-performance lubricants for agriculture and forestry at the world’s largest event for forestry and forestry technology, the KWF-TAGUNG, from June 19 to 22, 2024. One highlight is Divinol SynthoHyd Eco 46, a fully synthetic and biodegradable multigrade hydraulic oil for use in environmentally sensitive areas. The range also includes other Divinol organic hydraulic oils and AquaChainFluid, an organic chain oil.

Zeller+Gmelin has added a polyalphaolefin-based product to its existing product portfolio of bio-hydraulic oils for environmentally sensitive areas: Divinol SynthoHyd Eco 46 is particularly suitable for heavy-duty hydraulic units, large mobile machines or stationary applications and is the result of intensive research and development work. Thanks to the high-quality zinc- and ash-free additives, excellent corrosion and wear protection is guaranteed.

The new PAO-based premium bio-hydraulic oil is in no way inferior to the traditional variants of bio-hydraulic oils based on saturated esters and enables the longest oil change intervals as well as excellent low- and high-temperature behavior. As it can be used with both mineral and ester-based products, users benefit from simplified oiling of the machine. One of the most important advantages is that Divinol SynthoHyd Eco 46 behaves like a mineral hydraulic oil with regard to hose materials and seals, i.e. the customer does not have to replace any hose materials regardless of which type of hydraulic oil is used – Divinol SynthoHyd Eco or mineral hydraulic oil. The package is rounded off by improved water compatibility, filterability and venting time, as well as reduced formation of oil sludge.

All in all, the advantages mentioned above result in significant savings potential in operating costs and greater flexibility with regard to the use of the vehicle fleet. The bio-hydraulic oil has been tested in accordance with OECD301B and meets the requirements of the EU Ecolabel and the Swedish Standard.

Long-life hydraulic oils

With Divinol HE 32 and Divinol HE 46 as well as Divinol Bio-Hydraulik, the lubricant manufacturer is also presenting three biodegradable hydraulic oils which, according to the manufacturer, are ideal for efficient continuous operation in forestry and agriculture. These hydraulic oils are formulated on the basis of synthetic esters and are readily biodegradable in accordance with OECD 301 B and have been awarded the EU Ecolabel.

“The KWF conference is the most important event for us when it comes to forestry and wood. We are deliberately attending this year as a manufacturer of high-quality lubricants for environmentally sensitive areas that are constantly setting new standards in terms of sustainability and environmental friendliness,” emphasizes Michael Peter, Product Manager Lubricants at Zeller+Gmelin.

Strong chain oil for harvesters & co.

Zeller+Gmelin is bringing a whole range of lubricants to Schwarzenborn that are ideally suited for environmentally sensitive areas. The products also always meet the highest standards in terms of performance. Like e.g. the Divinol HV organic chain oil for harvesters, which can be used all year round and will also be on display at the trade fair. It impresses with its high viscosity and excellent lubricating properties.

We will also be presenting our chain fluid at the trade fair: Divinol AquaChainFluid. It is a biodegradable, water-based high-performance saw chain fluid for chainsaws. Compared to conventional chain oils, the use of AquaChainFluid minimizes the release of substances into the environment due to loss lubrication on the chain. This not only protects the environment, but also conserves resources.

“Visitors to the trade fair can also get an idea of our wide range of Divinol high-performance lubricants, such as Divinol two-stroke oil FF or the two lawnmower oils Divinol Special Lawnmower Oil HD 30 and Lawnmower Oil Special 10W-30,” adds Product Manager Michael Peter. He also has Divinol Bio-Kettenöl R, which is ideal for hand-held chainsaws, in his trade fair luggage. Based on renewable raw materials, it has been awarded the Blue Angel, the EU Ecolabel, the Austrian Ecolabel and the KWF test mark.
