Savita Oil Technologies has marked a significant milestone with the commissioning of its new synthetic ester plant in Mahad, Maharashtra, India. 

Synthetic esters are a category of synthetic lubricants derived from organic acids and alcohols. They are known for their excellent lubricating properties, thermal stability, and biodegradability.

The newly inaugurated facility is a multipurpose plant, meticulously designed to manufacture synthetic esters, a crucial component for transformer fluid applications. Beyond this primary function, the plant is equipped to produce synthetic esters for high-performance automotive and industrial lubricants, marking a significant expansion in Savita Oil’s production capabilities.

Savita Oil’s announcement on October 16, 2023, regarding the successful commissioning of the plant underscores the company’s commitment to innovation and expansion. The establishment of the Mahad facility is a strategic move, positioning Savita Oil Technologies to meet the growing demand for high-quality, energy-efficient lubricants and transformer fluids for the domestic and international markets.

Synthetic esters are used in various industrial applications including compressors, hydraulics, and turbines due to their superior performance characteristics. They are also used in formulating high-performance engine oils, gear oils, and greases for both automotive and aviation applications.

The plant’s inauguration is a testament to the company’s growth trajectory. The integration of this new facility is anticipated to bolster the company’s production capacity, enhance operational efficiency, and facilitate the diversification of its product portfolio.
