at Lubricant Expo Europe
At Lubricant Expo Europe 2026, Setral Chemie GmbH – Sétral S.à.r.l. received the “Grease Innovation of the Year” award. The company was nominated in two categories: “Finished Lubricant of the Year” and “Grease Innovation of the Year”.
The award-winning development combines an innovative synthetic base oil technology with a tailored thickener and additive system. The base oil used exhibits up to four times the oxidation stability of conventional PAO base oils. The grease offers a wide operating temperature range and good material compatibility and is free from PFAS, TPPT, silicone oil and microplastics. Developed for long-life applications, including lifetime lubrication, it offers the potential for extended lubricant service life and reduced maintenance requirements.
This development is the result of the collaborative efforts of our colleagues. Their expertise, experience and commitment across departments and locations have made this success possible. The award also recognises the people who develop ideas, test them in the laboratory and work together to put them into practice.
In grateful remembrance and with deep appreciation, we dedicate this award to our colleague Aurélie Lamier, who recently passed away far too young. She was part of our laboratory team in France for 18 years, and her expertise and work helped shape the innovative capabilities recognised by this award.
Our thanks also go to our partners, customers, friends and families for their trust, ideas and support.
Even amid the challenges of everyday life, we are proud of what we have achieved together. Mutual appreciation, reliability and a sense of responsibility for one another form the foundation of our company and connect our network across borders.
Thank you to everyone who contributed to this success, voted for us and supported our work. A big thank you also goes to the entire Expo organising team! Lubricant Expo Europe
