From collection to
re-refining

The collection is the cycle first step in which we transform the used lubricating oil into base oil of the highest quality and purity, ready to be used again.

Our drivers/collectors arrive in more than 3,400 Brazilian cities to start the reverse oil logistics, which is transported to one of our collection centers and then to our factory, in Lençóis Paulista, for refining.

A sustainable destination that allows this potentially toxic waste to come to life again and again.

Do you know what reverse logistics is?

A responsibility that brings benefits to the planet and to all.

Waste generating
companies

Automotive workshops, car dealerships, gas stations, oil exchanges, industry and other segments - must ensure that the oil used has sustainable and legal destination.

Lwart Environmental Solutions ensure collection, transportation and storage certified by regulatory agencies. With each operation, we issue the COC - Certificate of Oil Collection - which proves that the customer who generated the used oil is acting sustainably and in accordance with the law.

Industry

Lwart's work avoids the impacts that the used lubricating oil would have on nature if it was not collected, such as contamination of water, soil and air.

The planet benefits directly from it because, in addition to collecting, we transform millions of liters of used oil into new high quality oil that is a sustainable and noble alternative to the segment of lubricating oils. In other words, nothing is lost, it is transformed to be useful again.

Final
Consumer

Every conscious consumer needs to know where the waste they produce goes. It is a way to take care of the environment and ensure a better planet for your family and society as a whole.

It is important to be aware and choose workshops and gas stations that make the correct disposal of the waste you generate.

When in doubt, at the time of the exchange, ask where the used oil from your car goes.

Did you know?

The illegal burning of used lubricating oil generates toxic gases. It can cause diseases and aggravate the greenhouse effect.

1 liter of used lubricating oil can contaminate, 1 million liters of water, that's the amount that a person consumes in 14 years.

The used lubricating oil discarded in the soil can contaminate the water sources, an essential natural resource to human beings.

DON'T LET THAT HAPPEN REQUEST NOW YOUR COLLECTION WITH LWART!

Licenses and credentials
