Australian Auto Aftermarket Association 2017 Most Innovative New Packaging Award WINNER
Penrite Oil Company has been proudly Australian and family owned since 1926. Innovation, premier quality and a focus on local manufacturing are three key attributes behind our 90 year plus success story. Therefore, we are proud to be the first Australian lubricant manufacturer to introduce a new dispensing system that is kind to our environment, decreases packaging wastage, increases bulk lubricant storage capacity and increases workplace safety for trade customers .
WHAT IS ENVIRO BOX™?
Enviro Box™ is a bag-in-a-box concept for packaging and dispensing lubricant. A bladder bag is housed inside a 100% recyclable cardboard box, as opposed to the traditional plastic drum method. It will revolutionise the way lubricants are manufactured, packaged, distributed, handled & stored.
Enviro Box™ is designed to reduce landfill waste, increase productivity and reduce costs.

Are you still selling 20L plastic drums?
Yes, we will still be offering 20L plastic drums. Enviro Box™ is an alternative solution for customers who are looking for different packaging options. Customers will be given a choice between Enviro Box™ and the existing 20L plastic drums. Penrite understand there may still be some applications where the 20L drum may be better suited to your needs so the 20L plastic drum will remain available at this time. Plastic drums are still a viable option in wet or damp conditions.
Are the cardboard boxes waxed?
No, the cardboard boxes are not waxed. If they were waxed, they would not be 100% recyclable. The boxes can be recycled in your recycling bin. However without waxing on boxes they are prone to moisture damage. If this is a concern 20L plastic drums are still available.
Can I recycle the cardboard box?
Yes, the cardboard boxes are 100% recyclable and can be disposed in your local cardboard recycling bin. The cardboard is not coated in wax. Waxed cardboard is not recyclable.
What do I do with the empty bladder?
Please refer to your local council or recycling center for correct disposal procedures.
Can the empty bladder be reused to dispose of waste oil?
Yes, simply remove the threaded tap, fill the bladder and seal accordingly. Please dispose of waste oil responsibly. Options include contacting your local council or referring to promoted services. Click here to find one near you.

How can I store Enviro Box™ ?
Enviro Box™ can be stored in your garage, shed or home. Please store in a dry, safe location and follow lifting instructions on the box.
Where is the Enviro Box™ being manufactured and packaged?
In true Penrite tradition, the Enviro Box™ will be locally manufactured in Brisbane, Australia!
Does the Enviro Box™ contain a tap for dispensing?
Yes, each Enviro Box comes with a tap.
Is Penrite the first Australian owned and locally manufactured oil company to introduce the bag-in-a-box concept in Australia?
Yes, Penrite is very proactive and innovative in designing today's solution, for a better tomorrow. Penrite was recently voted the 2017 WINNER for the most innovative NEW packaging award by the Australian Automotive Aftermarket Association (AAAA)
Why can't you recycle and re-use the existing 20L plastic drums?
To ensure the highest level of quality of the product, reusing used 20L plastic drum is not a current option due to risks including cross-contamination, integrity of container and internal quality accreditation standards. Enviro Box™ ensures no less than 85% of the packaging is recycled.
Will the Enviro Box™ be available in 60L or 205L sizes?
Unfortunately, at this point of time we only provide the 20L packaging. Penrite will continue to sell the 60L and 205L drums which are recyclable.
