At SKF, we believe that sustainability can be improved in every step of the industrial value chain. From the way we select our raw materials, energy sources and transports, to how we dispose of our waste. We are making continuous efforts to offer new ways to recycle, remanufacture and reuse industrial assets for a more sustainable, circular economy.
After years of innovation, collaboration and development, SKF RecondOil offers a technology that enables uncompromised recovery and reuse of industrial lubrication oil. With SKF RecondOil, we are paving the way for a transition from a linear to a circular economy of industrial oil.
Our new technology also enables new business models that present opportunities for cooperation. With our oil as a service contracts, we are taking a step away from traditional, transactional models. Instead, we’re offering a solution where oil no longer needs to be viewed as an environmentally harmful consumable, but instead as an enabler of a sustainable, profitable and circular process.
Thomas Persson
Co-founder and Inventor
We are convinced that this technology is capable of changing the way we perceive industrial oil lubrication. Ever since we began development in the late nineties, the DST systems have proven useful for an ever-growing number of applications and industries.
With DST, we are paving the way for a circular and sustainable use of oil.

Oil is used in almost everything, ranging from wind turbines to cars and industries. It's time to use that oil in a much more environmentally friendly manner. We need to reduce CO2 emissions heavily and use this valuable resource in a circular way.
SKF RecondOil's team has managed to make the impossible possible: to create a sustainable use of oil, where our Double Separation Technology makes it possible to use the same oil over and over again.
Fredrik has worked for SKF for 17 years in various management positions in Asia, North America, Europe and Australia and has managed a number of new SKF ventures. He holds an MSc in Mechanical Engineering and Business to Business Marketing from Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden.
About SKF
Our customers want reduced friction, machines that run faster, longer, cleaner and more safely. Solving this in the most effective and sustainable way contributes to our vision of a world of reliable rotation.
We achieve this by combining hands-on experience in over 40 industries with our knowledge across the SKF technology platforms: bearings and units, seals, motion technologies, services and lubrication systems. Our success is based on this knowledge, our people, and our four perspectives of SKF Care. Find out more at www.skf.com/group/our-company/
