NEOL’s naturally green lubricants lead the way

When it comes to engine oil, colour rarely tells the full story, but NEOL Lubricants is an exception. The company’s high-performance formulations owe their distinct green hue to something more than branding: it’s the natural result of NEOL’s CuGlide™ technology.

Unlike conventional lubricants, NEOL products derive their colour from a key active ingredient - a copper additive. This gives the oil a vibrant green tone reminiscent of emerald, turquoise, or even classic British racing green, a visible marker of the innovation beneath the surface.

CuGlide™ is a pioneering copper-based anti-wear additive that sets NEOL apart in a crowded market. While traditional lubricants rely on legacy friction modifiers and detergents, NEOL’s copper chemistry forms a highly durable tribofilm - a microscopic protective layer that reduces wear and restores surface defects in engine components.

“CuGlide™ is more than just a performance enhancer,” explains Leyla Alieva, CEO and Co-Founder of NEOL Lubricants. “It’s a rethinking of how engine protection works at a molecular level. The colour is a byproduct of the chemistry - not a dye - which is why we say NEOL is ‘naturally’ green.”

Independent testing has shown that NEOL’s CuGlide-enhanced formulations can deliver up to five percent improvement in fuel economy and significantly reduce engine wear. For internal combustion engines still in use across commercial fleets, these performance gains translate to cleaner operation, extended service intervals, and longer equipment life.

“Green oils aren’t new,” adds Alieva. “But NEOL is green for the right reasons. We’re committed to improving the efficiency of vehicles on the road today, while supporting the transition to cleaner transport in the years ahead.”
