Total Lubmarine has said that it will be outlining a 'new era of bio-lubes for shipping' next week with the announcement of a change to its product range following recent developments in the Asia Pacific market.

The company is scheduled to host a press conference at Sea Asia 2011 in Singapore on Wednesday, April 13, 2011, where it will offer an insight into the unique operational challenges faced by Asian shipowners on trade routes that are experiencing increasing growth despite the difficult economic climate.

Lubmarine says it has seen particular uptake patterns around its products in the Asia Pacific region, and will be announcing a change to its product range as a direct result of these developments.

With a view to the future, Lubmarine said it will be looking specifically at the beginning of a growth in uptake of bio-lubricants in Asia.
