Drivers

Increase in the Mining Industry

• Due to accelerated industrial development and the utilisation of cutting-edge mining technologies, the mining sector has experienced tremendous expansion in recent years. Industry 4.0 has digitalized the mining sector and increased output. In addition, the mining sector supplies raw materials to a number of sectors, including those in the automotive, manufacturing, steel, aluminium, building materials, electronics, glass, and other sectors. The growth of each of the aforementioned industries is anticipated to continue. As a result, the development of these sectors could raise demand for the mining sector.

Rising interest in bio-based lubricants

• Vegetable oil, synthetic esters, and animal fats are used to make biobased mining lubricants. In industrialised nations compared to poor nations, there is a rising need for biobased lubricants. Due to government-imposed strict environmental restrictions and a consumer base that is ecologically concerned, regions like North America and Europe are the largest consumers of biobased lubricants. High regulation and sustainability norms are typical of the market in these areas. Also, consumers in the European market are willing to pay a substantial premium if biobased mining lubricants can perform on par with traditional mining lubricants.

Restraints

Mining industry-related environmental issues

• The mining business supplies a variety of raw resources to the manufacturing sector, assisting in the economic growth of numerous nations. Despite being crucial for economic expansion, the mining industry has a very substantial negative impact on the environment. Mining operations have the potential to destroy species and their habitats, pollute the air and water, and impact the environment. To lessen the environmental effects of the mining industry, governments around the world have enacted strict laws. In addition, a number of non-governmental Organisations, including the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Western Mining Action Network (WMAN), the European Environmental Agency (EEA), and others, are collaborating with regional administrations to create procedures and practices that will cut down on pollution and support sustainable development
