MOBIL SHC™ AWARE™ GREASE SERIES
Readily Biodegradable Non-Toxic Grease
Mobil SHC Aware™ Grease Series greases are high performance synthetic products designed specifically for applications which are environmentally sensitive and meet the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) 2013 Vessel General Permit (VGP) and the EU Ecolabel requirements. These leading products are readily biodegradable and virtually non-toxic as they are formulated based on biodegradable saturated ester base oils and a lithium/calcium soap thickener. They do not emulsify and have excellent water wash and salt water corrosion resistance.
