United Kingdom Lubricants Market Outlook

The United Kingdom lubricants market size reached a value of approximately USD 5.85 billion in 2023. The market is projected to grow at a CAGR of 2.1% between 2024 and 2032, reaching a value of around USD 7.04 billion by 2032.

 

Key Trends in the Market

A lubricant is any fluid, oil, or grease that is used to reduce friction between two surfaces working in proximity. Lubricants prevent rapid wear and tear of moving parts of a machine while absorbing the heat generated by them. They are widely used across various sectors requiring heavy machinery, including automotive, power generation, and heavy equipment, among others.

 

  • One of the significant United Kingdom lubricants market trends is the increasing demand for high-performance engines from various sectors like automotive, metallurgy and metalworking, and heavy equipment, among others. An engine contains many moving parts, working under high stress and heat, which makes it essential to use high-quality lubricants to enhance its efficiency and durability.
  • Rising environmental consciousness and increasing energy costs have prompted manufacturers to reduce power consumption during production. Unlubricated engine parts are more prone to friction and consume more fuel. Hence, the demand for lubricants is rising as they can considerably reduce friction due to their superior density, viscosity, and molecular weights, optimising fuel consumption and reducing energy requirements.
  • The growing automotive sector in the United Kingdom is expected to propel the United Kingdom lubricants market in the forecast period. In the automotive sector, lubricants are used to reduce friction between components of vehicles and absorb the heat generated by them to control their temperature. Hence the increasing number of commercial and personal vehicles is expected to expand the market size.

 

Market Analysis

Based on base oil, the market is segmented into synthetic oil, mineral oil, and bio-based oil. On the basis of product type, the market can be divided into engine oils, greases, hydraulic fluids, metalworking fluids, and transmission and gear oils, among others. On the basis of end use, the United Kingdom lubricants market segmentations include automotive, heavy equipment, metallurgy and metalworking, and power generation, among others.
