Penrite says its new 10L Enviro Box is revolutionising lubricant packaging

For nearly a century, Penrite Oil says it has stood as an icon of Australian automotive excellence, a name synonymous with quality, performance, and innovation.
Proudly Australian-owned and operated since 1926, Penrite says it continues to set the standard in lubricant technology, delivering products that meet the evolving demands of the automotive, industrial, and heavy-duty sectors.
Now, as the industry embraces the future of sustainability, Penrite says it is once again leading the charge with the release of new 10L packaging of its popular Enviro Box range, which it describes as a breakthrough packaging solution that redefines how lubricants are stored, dispensed, and recycled across Australia and New Zealand.
“The Enviro Box isn’t just another container, it is a complete rethink of lubricant distribution,” Penrite Oil Chief Executive Officer, Toby Dymond, said.
“Designed as a compact, high-efficiency packaging and dispensing system, Enviro Box replaces traditional plastic drums with a recyclable cardboard outer and a durable inner bladder.
“This innovative design delivers multiple benefits throughout the supply chain, from logistics and storage to workshop operations and waste management.”
According to Penrite, the Enviro Box system achieves up to a 90 percent reduction in landfill waste, using 100 percent recyclable cardboard and a robust, collapsible bladder that’s easy to remove and recycle appropriately.
“For workshops, mobile mechanics, and service centres, the 10L Enviro Box delivers genuine operational advantages,” Toby said.
“The smaller footprint and stackable design make it ideal for compact storage and mobile operations, while the integrated high flow tap ensures quick, clean, and controlled dispensing.
“The design eliminates the mess and inefficiency often associated with rigid containers or bulk oil drums.”
Penrite’s new 10L format complements the company’s existing Enviro Box range.
“It is engineered to increase productivity while reducing costs, making it a win-win for both businesses and the environment,” Toby said.
“Workshops benefit from simplified inventory management, reduced waste disposal costs, and faster turnaround times, translating directly into better service for customers.”
The new 10L Enviro Box range covers a broad spectrum of Penrite’s best-selling lubricants, with the company stating this ensures workshops can meet diverse vehicle requirements without compromise on performance or protection.
The initial launch includes popular lines such as:
• Enviro+ 0W-20 (Full Synthetic)
• Enviro+ 5W-20 (Full Synthetic)
• Enviro+ 10W-40 (Full Synthetic)
• Enviro+ EU 5W-30 (Full Synthetic)
• HPR 5 5W-40 (Full Synthetic)
• HPR Diesel 10 10W-40 (Semi Synthetic)
• Vantage Full Synthetic 5W-30
• Vantage Semi Synthetic 10W-40
• Vantage MV 5W-30 (Full Synthetic)
“Each lubricant within the range meets or exceeds key OEM and international specifications, underscoring Penrite’s reputation for uncompromising technical quality,” Toby said.
Beyond operational efficiency, Penrite’s Enviro Box embodies the company’s broader sustainability vision.
Every aspect, from the recyclable cardboard shell to the reduced plastic content, contributes to lower environmental impact.
The cardboard outer can be flattened and recycled through standard recycling channels, while the inner bladder can be disposed of through local recycling centres following council guidelines.
This simple yet effective recycling process dramatically cuts down workshop waste, supporting cleaner, more sustainable operations across the industry.
As an added innovation, the system features a “litres used” tracker, enabling workshops to monitor oil consumption with greater accuracy, a practical touch that enhances accountability and reduces waste.
“The release of the 10L Enviro Box range reflects Penrite’s continued investment in sustainable manufacturing and packaging innovation within Australia,” Toby said.
“At a time when environmental accountability is increasingly shaping consumer and corporate decision-making, Penrite’s Enviro Box stands as a tangible example of how local industry can lead with purpose.
“It is not just about lubricants; it is about rethinking how essential products are delivered responsibly.
“For workshops, mechanics, and distributors alike, adopting the new 10L Enviro Box range isn’t simply an operational choice, it is a commitment to reducing waste, improving efficiency, and supporting Australian innovation.
A century of trust, a future of responsibility
Celebrating 100 years of trusted performance, Penrite says it continues to evolve while staying true to its core values – quality, innovation, and sustainability.
“From motorsport to everyday motoring, Penrite’s products are engineered for reliability and performance under the harshest conditions,” Toby said.
“Now, with the expanded Enviro Box range, we extend that same dedication to protecting the environment, one box at a time.”
The new 10L Enviro Box range is available now through Penrite and its distributors nationwide.
