Process Oils

MKR are the only authorised Shell Distributor for Process Oils in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland. Process Oils are special mineral oil products used to manufacture products in the chemical and technical industries. They are used either as an ingredient in a manufactured product or as an aid for processing a raw material or manufactured article. To separate this group of products from hydrocarbon solvents, this definition is only applied to those mineral oil products with an initial boiling point above 180 degrees centigrade.
