KLUBER LUBRICATION
K
lüber Lubrication is one of the world’s leading manufacturers of specialty lubricants, offering high-end tribological solutions to virtually all industries and markets worldwide. Most products are developed and made to specific customer requirements. During its more than 80 years of existence, Klüber Lubrication has provided high-quality lubricants, thorough consultation and extensive services, which have earned it an excellent reputation in the market. The company holds all common industrial certifications and houses a test facility hardly rivaled in the lubricants industry. At Klüber, we continue to pioneer advances in order to translate previously inconceivable concepts into fully functional reality. We make these crucial contributions with over 2000
special lubricants that can be used in extreme operating or environmental conditions in vehicles, machinery or plant manufacturing, and in industrial engineering or production technology where conventional lubricants fail. When stringent technical and ecological requirements coincide, that’s where Klüber Lubrication’s special lubricants have the leading edge. For example, our specialty oils for ship-propulsion systems are classified as readily biodegradable and can be used in one of the world’s most sensitive ecosystems—the Arctic. Klüber Lubrication, set up as a retail company for mineral-oil products in Munich, in 1929, is part of Freudenberg Chemical Specialities KG, a Business Unit of the Freudenberg Group, Weinheim.
In 2011, Klüber Lubrication had approximately 1900 employees in more than 30 countries.
