Fuchs Lubricants originates from a group of companies merged and acquired over the last 140 years. This rich and long history means today they are the world’s largest independent manufacturer of lubricants and supply specialist products into automotive and commercial, aerospace, construction, food, military, paper, glass, marine, rail, and wind sectors amongst others.

A family-owned business, Fuchs now has a global reach, with blending plants, laboratories and distribution centres in more than 50 countries. Its continuing mission is to help the world keep moving both efficiently and sustainably, with high-quality lubrication products and services for a complete range of applications and industries.

Characteristics of Fuchs lubricants

Fuchs offers an extensive range of lubricants with attributes focused on reducing friction, enhancing efficiency and promoting sustainability. While its products include state-of-the-art lubricants designed to optimise machinery performance in the industrial sector, Fuchs also develops and delivers eco-friendlier options such as biodegradable oils and greases. Its line of engine oils is imbued with many coveted qualities and offers prolonged oil change intervals, high performance formulations and temperature regulation.

Benefits of Fuchs lubricants

Fuchs lubricants support machinery running at optimal performance. Their outstanding lubricity reduces metal-to-metal friction, facilitating reduced energy consumption. It also prevents wear and excessive heat generation when moving components interact, extending equipment lifespan and minimising mechanical downtime and repair costs.

A forward-thinking lubricant manufacturer, Fuchs is focused on providing green alternatives. These include biodegradable lubricants to replace conventional hydrocarbon-based oils. End users can adopt Fuchs sustainable lubricants on site to meet specific environmental legislation and regulations.

Fuchs lubricants are engineered with high levels of thermal stability. As a result, oils, fluids and greases can maintain peak performance, even when operating at extreme temperatures. These include both high and low temperature operations.

Many lubricants from Fuchs are specially formulated to offer longer drain intervals, and in some cases, feature fill-for-life guarantees. Consequently, operations can reduce onsite maintenance costs considerably and maximise workforce productivity. Fuchs lubricants also promote employee wellbeing by reducing chatter and noise of machinery in operation.

High shear stability is a quality many Fuchs Lubricants provide. This allows them to hold up well with the stress supplied in high-speed operations, without deteriorating and losing their sought-after qualities. Their excellent load-carrying capacity is also coveted. Infused with extreme pressure (EP) additives, many Fuchs lubrication solutions are designed to protect equipment working under heavy loads.

Designed to keep equipment protected and active for the full length of service advised by OEMs (original equipment manufacturer), Fuchs lubricants also effectively clean equipment of contaminants while safeguarding it against rust and other corrosives hazardous to metal machinery and components.
