About Prolan

Raw lanolin (wool grease) is a natural substance secreted by sheep to provide a protective coating on their fleece for protection in harsh conditions. Once the sheep have been shorn, the fleece undergoes a scouring and refining process to extract the lanolin and to clean the fleece.

Prolan is made from a specialised process which converts raw wool grease into a range of non-toxic, environmentally friendly products that are affordable and easy to apply. These products have multiple ranges of applications from general industrial lubrication and preservation, to the protection of metals and electronics from corrosion and wear.

Benefits of Prolan

The benefits of using Prolan for corrosion prevention, lubrication and preservation are many, both to the user and the environment.

Prolan lanolin is non-toxic and non-carcinogenic.

Prolan lanolin penetrates through rust to protect metal & alloy surfaces and lift rust scale.

Prolan inhibits oxidation and galvanic corrosion.

Prolan forms a barrier coating on treated surfaces, effectively preventing corrosive agents from reaching and penetrating the surface.

Prolan is non-evaporative, non-leaching and resists being washed off of surfaces (after the carrier has evaporated), increasing longevity of protection.

Prolan has high resistance to acids making it ideal to use in industrial environments, it also has a moderate alkali resistance.

Prolan is safe to use on rubber and other synthetic materials and will not cause perishing.

Prolan can help reduce stock holdings through its versatility and help reduce down time of maintenance.

Prolan will prevent moisture and oxygen from contacting metal surfaces preventing corrosion.

Prolan will prevent electrolysis caused by dissimilar metals.

Prolan is NZFSA Approved C12 (All animal product except dairy).

Prolan is AgriQuality approved for food/beverage/dairy/farms-factories/food areas non-contact, ref h1587.

All blends of Prolan products are very easy and safe to apply.
