Global Independent Lubricant Manufacturers Market: Flourishing Automotive Industry Continues to Drive Market, says TMR

The global independent lubricant manufacturers market is led by Fuchs Lubricants in 2012, states a new report by Transparency Market Research. The company is focusing on expanding their business through establishing plants across the globe. Other players in the market are not necessarily those with their own refineries. Many independent lubricant manufacturers source their base oil from other suppliers such as oil refineries and petroleum companies. Players are focusing on marketing and manufacturing high performance products. The development of sustainable products for end user industries will be another area of interest for independent lubricant manufacturers across the globe. Some of the other key players in the market are Carlube, Motul, Liqui Moly, Pentosin, Unil-Opal, Torco, Amsoil, Royal Purple, and Red Line. 
According to the report, the global independent lubricant manufacturers market is expected to be worth nearly US$8.5 bn by 2019. On the basis of product, the market is segmented into automotive lubricants and industrial lubricants. Of these, the automotive industry is anticipated to witness a significant growth in the coming years. However, in the past, the industrial lubricants segment has led in the market. By geography, the global independent lubricant manufacturers market is segmented into Asia Pacific, Europe, North America, and the Rest of the World. Asia Pacific led in terms of contributing the maximum, in terms of revenue in the past, followed by North America and Europe. By end user, the market is segmented into EM units, mining industry, steel industry, and agriculture.
Rising Demand from Automobile Sector to Drive Growth of Independent Lubricant Manufacturers Market
The primary driver of the global independent lubricant manufacturers market is the heightened applications of lubricants in the automotive sector. Another factor fueling the growth of the market is the demand for bio-based alternatives, In addition to this, independent lubricant manufacturers are providing technical assistance, which is also aiding the growth of the market. Moreover, players are investing extensively on research and development to ensure customers get improved products and this is also helping the independent lubricant manufacturers market to grow.
The growth in the number of automobiles sold and the increasing disposable incomes are some of the other factors which are indirectly having a positive impact on the market. In addition to this, many OEM car manufacturers have signed agreements with independent lubricant manufacturers such as Audi, BMW, Porsche, and Mercedes.
Price Fluctuations in Mineral Oil to Pose Problem
Factors such as the rising volatility in the prices of mineral oil is expected to act as a restraining factor, which will hamper the global independent lubricant manufacturers market. In addition to this, the high price of bio-based lubricants will also hamper the growth of the market in the long run. However, signing of new agreements with independent lubricant manufacturers by OEM car manufacturers is expected to create new opportunities in the market. The growing applications of lubricants in the mining, steel, and agriculture industry are slated to drive the market in the coming years and act as opportunity. In addition to this, Europe has a highly established automotive industry and includes some of the top OEM car manufacturing companies and this will prove to be a lucrative market for the global independent lubricant manufacturers.

Superabrasives (Turning, Cutting, Buffing, Drilling, Boring, Grinding) Market Research Report 2025

An abrasive is a material which molds or provides finishing to a work piece through a process which includes buffing, grinding, cutting, as well as polishing. Abrasion typically depends on the difference in the hardness of the material and the abrasive (with the latter being the harder of the two). Unlike regular abrasion where any two solid materials that repeatedly rub against each other tend to wear away, superabrasives possess the kind of hardness that enables them to stay usable for a longer period of time. On the basis of hardness, the top two superabrasives include diamond and cubic boron nitride (CBN). Industrial diamonds used as superabrasives are exceptionally hard materials. However, they display several technological limitations. For instance, when a diamond comes in contact with a ferrous alloy such as steel or a nickel superalloy, the resulting formation of carbide leads to its abrasion. Also, a diamond-containing tool can only be used at moderate temperatures a...

Industrial Lubricants Market: Strong Demand Across Automotive Industry, Trends To 2025

Lubricants refer to the organic or inorganic material primarily being use to decrease friction between two surfaces in contact. Lubricants play a key role in several industries as well as in commercial and residential sectors. One of their most common uses is in the lubrication of bearings and gears, allowing for their easy movement at high speeds, without loss in energy, prevent excessive generation of heat, or most importantly, prevent damage that would be caused otherwise. Industrial lubricants are, therefore, essential in enhancing the overall efficiency of a machine that contains moving parts in contact with one another. The global industrial lubricants market is currently expanding at a solid growth rate, driven by several factors and spearheaded by the likes of BP, Total, Chevron Corporation, ExxonMobil, and Shell.

Rapid Prototyping Market - Rapidly Gaining Importance in Aerospace Sector, Research By 2024

Rapid prototyping is a technique in which the physical modeling of a design is done with the help of specialized machining technology. It was developed initially in the mid-1980s, the principle used in this technology is of solid modeling with the help of computer programs (i.e. CAD). Solid modeling makes use of computer aided-design (CAD) data to completely describe not just the external shape of parts or equipment, but its interior volume as well as the outside surfaces. The computer model is sliced into thin layers and the part of the product or commodity to be modelled or developed as per the requirement, is eventually fabricated by adding layers onto each other. Obtain Report Details @   http://www.transparencymarketresearch.com/rapid-prototyping-market.html The primary benefit of the system is that almost any shape can be manufactured using computerized programs. Time and money savings vary from 50% to 90% compared to conventional systems. Types of rapid proto...
