Interflon Scotland Ltd are a family run lubrication business who have been distributing in Scotland for over 30 years. We help businesses streamline their lubrication strategies, reduce emissions, and cut maintenance waste, backed by real-world data and measurable results. We offer a unique range of high-performance lubricants, cleaners and hardware. Unlike conventional petrochemical lubricants, our products are fortified with high performance additives and MicPol® particles, which form a solid, ultra-thin, long-lasting lubrication film at the lowest friction. This makes them especially effective in the adverse conditions found in the land and water courses owned and worked on by SLE members. Our customers experience considerably lower lubrication labour cost and lubricant consumption rates. Our products prolong the service life of critical components bringing down-time to a minimum, reducing power consumption and CO2 emissions, and improving equipment utilization rates and reliability at the same time.
