ROCOL agrees strategic partnership with Euro Rope Nederland

27.10.2016
ROCOL, an established manufacturer of lubricants for global industries, has been named as a preferred supplier by Euro Rope Nederland.

Euro Rope is a trusted manufacturer and supplier of a broad range of high quality rigging and lifting equipment. The company, which has a global track record of project success, has its own rental division that delivers heavy lifting and hoisting projects of up to 1,000 tonnes.

It will now stock ROCOL wire rope lubricant products, including the industry-leading BIOGEN WIRESHIELD range, under the ROPE-XTRA preferred wire rope distributors scheme.



Brendan Kendrick, Business Development Director at ROCOL, said: “This partnership with Euro Rope represents welcome endorsement of the ROCOL product range by a successful international business. We're delighted with this agreement and look forward to a long-term association with Euro Rope.”

Ricardo Groeneveld, Account Manager at Euro Rope, said: “We value the enhanced operational benefits of ROCOL products. Like Euro Rope, ROCOL is a business that is constantly looking to deliver even better solutions in a demanding market where safety is paramount at all times.”

Manufactured in the UK by ROCOL, BIOGEN WIRESHIELD is an EU Ecolabel certified Environmentally Acceptable Lubricant (EAL) that complies with the requirements of the US Vessel General Permit (VGP).

The wire rope lubricant’s pseudoplastic rheology means that shear or agitation causes a reduction in dynamic viscosity, which allows maximum penetration into umbilicals and wire ropes, as well as increasing ‘pumpability’ during application to minimise blockages.

BIOGEN WIRESHIELD delivers corrosion resistance, with zero galvanic reaction after 1000 hours in salt spray testing. Recent independent testing has shown the operational temperature range is between -50˚C and +180˚C ensuring consistent performance, even in Arctic conditions and during use in active heave compensation applications.

In recent times, ROCOL has secured partnerships and endorsements from a number of leading international service businesses.

Established more than 130 years ago, ROCOL is a manufacturer of lubricants and associated products for clients across a number of sectors including the offshore, marine, automotive, aerospace, industrial, food and drink, transport and mining industries.

UK-based ROCOL has 12 offices worldwide. For more information about ROCOL and its products visit www.rocol.com
