Our job doesn't end with selling
We approach the research and production of special oils from the perspective of friction mechanics and consider all oils, from lubricating to processing types, not as something disposable but as an integral component to the machinery itself. As such, we do not simply sell products but also work to provide functionality and added value.
We get better together with our clients
Since our establishment as a lubricating oil manufacturer in 1928, our company has continued to follow the philosophy of "getting better together." We believe that the profit of our client translates into our own prosperity and have not changed this stance at all in the over 80 years of our product development.
We are proud to say that we have been able to produce and maintain stable results thanks to our strength in developing quick solutions to our clients’ needs from the broad field of friction mechanics (Tribology). Today, having entered an era of global standards, we must work even harder to ensure customer satisfaction.
We promise to create a framework that allows us to provide small-quantity/multipurpose and high-quality lubricating oils one level above the rest.
