We researched and patented an alternative way of heating for grease reaction using microwaves.

ELM’s aluminum complex grease with extreme water replant property is applied using Lubitec’s grease applicator.

This reactor is the only one of its kind that is made of metal and also has metal mixing paddles and receives 150 KW of microwaves to process grease.

This short video illustrates how the magnetic fields of microwaves interacts with the molecules of vegetable oils.

The History Channel’s Modern Marvels featured The ELM’s patented microwave grease processing Systems. This process promises to revolutionize the processing of products.

This short video illustrates how the temperature of the product can be controlled within one degree Centigrade resulting in consistent reaction process every time.

Where to Get ELM Products

ELM products are offered under various private labels. So, it’s likely that many brands of biobased lubricants and greases offered are manufactured and packaged by ELM. There are some companies and distributors that offer the ELM products under the ELM brand names. The following is a sampling of some of the companies that offer ELM products. ELM offers products only through distributors. Please e-mail or call for more information on where to get ELM’s products.
