Specialist synthetic ester-based hydraulic lubricants - the sustainable choice for injection and blow moulding machinery

Three Years. 4.5 Million Cycles.

Zero Oil Changes.

How White Horse Plastics benefitted from the hydraulic fluid reliability of Mi240 HYDRAULIC.

The Challenge
Operating 24/5 in high-precision moulding for the medical and automotive sectors, White Horse Plastics' (WHP) ethos for responsible manufacturing meant they needed to move away from mineral oils that required frequent top-ups, regular changes, and created significant hazardous waste.

They needed a fluid that could handle the heat and pressure of non-stop production without degrading, and be commercially viable.

The Solution: Mi240 HYDRAULIC
In 2022, WHP transitioned to Mi240 HYDRAULIC - a saturated synthetic ester (SSE) biolubricant.

The result? Three years of continuous operation without a single oil change or unscheduled maintenance event.

Mitigating "Varnish" to Reduce Waste & Save Energy

Traditional mineral oils oxidise quickly, creating sticky varnish deposits that lead to valve-jamming and component wear.

Mi240 HYDRAULIC is different:

Superior Stability: Designed to resist thermal degradation and oxidation.
Energy Efficient: Proven to reduce machine power consumption by up to 8%.
Maintenance-Free: Virtually eliminates the need for fluid top-ups and filter changes.
Eco-Friendly: A readily biodegradable Environmentally Acceptable Lubricant (EAL).

KEEP OPERATIONS SMOOTH

Mi240 combats varnish build-up, preventing valve issues and avoiding unplanned stops. Less wear means fewer part replacements and longer machine life.

REDUCE COSTS, BOOST UPTIME

Proven savings of up to 8% on energy and minimal top-ups means more production, less maintenance.

SUSTAINABLE ADVANTAGE

Biodegradable and efficient, Mi240 requires less fluid compared to mineral oil alternatives. It also reduces waste, helping your business meet sustainability goals.
