What is Engine Oil?

Engine oil is a lubrication solution formulated using base oils and performance additives. It reduces friction, cools engine components, prevents corrosion, removes contaminants, and extends the engine’s lifespan. Engine oils are available in multiple grades such as:

  • Mineral Engine Oil
  • Semi-Synthetic Engine Oil
  • Fully Synthetic Engine Oil
  • Diesel Engine Oil
  • Motorcycle & Industrial Engine Oils

With rising demand for eco-safe and long-drain oils, the engine oil industry is expanding toward synthetic and high-performance lubricants.
