LUBRICANTS
In all types of machines, the surfaces of moving or sliding or rolling parts rub against each other. Due to this movement against surfaces in contact, friction results. Friction causes a lot of wear and tear and even generates heat. All these results in loss of efficiency and lubricants is the answer. Hence any substance put between two moving/rubbing/sliding surfaces with a view to reduce or eliminate frictional resistance is a lubricant. It is also worthy of note that the demand for lubricant is huge and especially in Industries.

Lubricant is currently in high demand in Nigeria

We can achieve a production-based economy and raise the standard of living of the average Nigerian.

From Consumption to Production

A lubricant is defined as a substance, for example, a grease Oil, that is put on surfaces or part of a machine, to help them move smoothly.

There have been marked increase of new entrant over the years and more investors are putting their seed into the industry.

Chemicals both organic and inorganic are major raw materials in many manufacturing companies; there are loads of products and manufacturing plants that depend on different type of chemicals ranging from gas supply, to oil and soda et al.
