Cleaner plant oils - Biolubricants manufactured from harvestable renewable resources are used in equipment in use at the Eden Project to highlight environmental and sustainability benefits

摘要

The Eden Project in conjunction with Fuchs Lubricants and McAlpines identified the opportunity to demonstrate the use of plant based hydraulic fluids in machines used during the construction of a new Education Resource Centre, a building that is an exemplar of sustainable construction. The Eden Project has quickly become one of the most visited paid for attractions in the UK, attracting over 1.5 million visitors a year. The exhibits on site engage the visitors in considering the relationship between plants and people.
