Driven by innovation, Lubmarine knows only one direction: forward. Its commitment to delivering pioneering lubrication solutions as well as new digital services, ensure ship owners and managers achieve safe, sustainable and reliable performance at sea.
The DNA on which the original business and those that evolved through the last 70 years remains at the heart of the business today: innovation, technical knowledge, support, flexibility, and determination to better serve customers across the marine and power industries.
For the maritime industry, we deliver to what are effectively moving industrial factories. If you deliver to a land-based factory it is always there – static and in a fixed location but with shipping we are talking about floating businesses. This makes it very complex. It’s an industry that literally never stops moving.
Product and service-centricity is therefore a priority for the Lubmarine business. Our strength, success and reputation is built on putting the customer first with Lubmarine’s global network to deliver anywhere in the world - in more than 1000 ports in 100 countries.
Providing expertise to our customers and the operational challenges they face is a critical part of our approach.
Our range of high-performance products are developed with a proactive research and development (R&D) programme - designed to create effective lubrication solutions that support vessel operators and owners not just for today, but importantly for tomorrow’s operations, as we collectively seek to find smarter ways to support industry in its ambitions to decarbonize across every shipping route.
“Not only do we regularly update and renew our existing range of lubricants, but we also look to develop new lubricant solutions to meet new regulations and standards”, says Olivier Denizart, Lubmarine Technical Manager.
The move to Low Carbon Fuels will see engine technology develop to meet the challenges ahead. Lubmarine is working on the next generation of cylinder lubricants, exploring a range of solutions including the use of low ash chemistries with high detergency performance, continuing the focus on engine cleanliness with the ongoing support of both OEMs and owners.
Together we go further.
