There is a world that remains hidden from most people - the fascinating world of surfaces on a microscopic level. In the "Technical Applications" business unit of IOI Oleo GmbH, we use the latest technologies every day in order to be able to offer our customers the best possible quality and innovation. One of these technologies, which plays a crucial role in our everyday work, is scanning electron microscopy (SEM).

Between regular meetings, urgent orders and video meetings, scanning electron microscope images are evaluated in order to further optimize performance in EPS production. The team in the Technical Applications Business Unit does everything they can to bring our customers’ individual blends to perfection so that the finished products meet the highest standards.

In between virtual meetings, inquiries, offers and production planning, there must be enough time and quiet for the development of individual customer solutions. This juggling is part of the day-to-day business of the Technical Applications business unit at IOI Oleo GmbH. Immerse yourself in a completely normal working day!

The global balance in trade has been permanently disrupted by the corona pandemic, and Russia’s war against Ukraine is doing the rest. Due to the poor availability of gas, this has recently led to dramatically increasing energy costs, which is particularly problematic for the energy-consuming aluminium production. Our SOFTENOL® 3829 doesn’t help to reduce energy prices, but it does ensure that aluminium is processed more efficiently and therefore more cost-effectively in different ways. For example, for the production of menu trays for convenience meals.

IOI Oleo GmbH pursues the self-declared goal of acting in an environmentally conscious and ecologically sustainable manner. At the beginning of the value chain in particular, we bear a great deal of responsibility and have a direct influence on the downstream industry. And it is exactly the same in the Technical Applications business unit!

Transporting the vaccines for the fight against Corona is a logistical challenge. All factors for smooth transport have to fit together perfectly. In this article you can read what we have to do with it and how our SOFTENOL® contributes to the success.

Convenience is King. Ready-to-eat meals are becoming more and more popular. That is evident from the growing demand for aluminium packaging for this segment. To produce this packaging, you need lubricants. The following article explains why IOI Oleo GmbH is regarded as the leading supplier of these solutions.
