Evolve Lubricants Inc., a green technology company headquartered in Reno, Nevada, founded in 2021, is proud to have developed its groundbreaking high-performance non-petroleum lubricant solutions. Its products tried and tested by many, including Porsche AG, mark a significant milestone in the quest for sustainability and environmental stewardship within the lubricant industry.
Traditionally, biodegradable lubricants have fallen short in performance compared to their petroleum counterparts, limiting their widespread adoption. Evolve Lubricants is changing this narrative with the introduction of the first hydrocarbon plant-based high-performance synthetic lubricants. Co-founder Rick Lee recalls the “AHA moment of realization” in 2020 when the company recognized the need for a true racing oil that surpassed the capabilities of existing options in the synthetic performance oil category.
“After years of witnessing the shortcomings of synthetic oils as an amateur racer myself, I knew there had to be a better solution, coming from advances in molecular modeling, that could be sustainable as well as high performing,” said Rick Lee.
Evolve Lubricants began its journey in 2014 with the development and distribution of synthetic motor oils testing and honing formulations to protect the most valuable racing cars on the planet. These oils, while petroleum-based, showcased unparalleled performance in many vehicles, including prestigious models like the Porsche 917s and Formula 1 cars.
Building on this success, Evolve Lubricants transitioned completely to non-petroleum base stocks in 2021, leveraging proprietary formulations to create lubricants that surpass the performance of traditional petroleum-based products. The company’s mission is clear: to deliver the benefits to large consumers of petroleum. These benefits include 2 to 10x oil drain intervals and proven fuel economy improvements anywhere from 4 to 6%.
“At Evolve Lubricants, we are committed to pushing the boundaries of innovation while delivering staggering RoIs within months, not years,” states Mr. Lee. “Our products not only deliver exceptional performance but also contribute to a cleaner, greener future.”
Certified Carbon Negative Base Oil L.C.A. (Life Cycle Assessment) underscores Evolve Lubricants’ dedication to sustainability, ensuring that all finished lubricants utilize non-petroleum base oils with a negative CO₂ footprint. This commitment extends across a wide range of applications, from passenger car motors to industrial lubricants and motorsport racing oils.
Furthermore, Evolve Lubricants has partnered with Mansfield Oil, the largest fuel distribution company in the United States, for distribution, expanding its reach to the global marketplace. The company’s high-performance renewable engine oils have undergone rigorous testing, by Porsche AG, with extremely positive results published to the World Engine Congress. Fourteen months of field testing, with one of the largest over-the-road trucking carriers, has produced substantial gains in both fuel economy, extended drain intervals, and diesel engine regenerations.
Evolve Lubricants’ innovative approach to lubricant technology has garnered widespread recognition, with its products showcased at prestigious events like the World Engine Congress. The company’s renewable engine oils have been lauded for their remarkable performance and durability, attracting attention from industrial giants as well – including having its fluids in the rental fleets of one of the largest home improvement retailers in the United States.
As Evolve Lubricants continues to push the boundaries of innovation, its dedication to sustainability and high performance remains unwavering. Through advanced technology and scientific breakthroughs, the company is leading the charge toward a cleaner, greener future for the lubricant industry.
