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.”
