The ethos has always been to become the experts. FFS International has a proven track record of providing industrially successful solutions, from lab based R&D to plant execution. Part of the success is the emphasis on in-house development and knowledge transfer. Most recently, FFS International pioneered the development of supercritical purification of used lubricating oils.
