About Lubricants & Grease
A lubricant is a substance, usually organic, introduced to reduce friction between surfaces in mutual contact, which ultimately reduces the heat generated when the surfaces move. It may also have the function of transmitting forces, transporting foreign particles, or heating or cooling the surfaces. The property of reducing friction is known as lubricity.
Apex shares a special bond with two of the leading high end lubricant and grease manufacturers in the UAE with state of the art manufacturing capabilities to manufacture Heavy Duty Engine Oils, PCMO's, Two/Four Stroke Engine Oils, Automotive Gear Oils, Transmission Oils, Hydraulic Oils, Industrial Gear Oils, Turbine Oils, Greases, Coolant & Brake Fluids.
At Apex, we initially intend to purchase lubricants and greases from local vendors and cater to sections in the Indian Subcontinent where other companies have not made a mark as yet. Eventually we plan to start our own manufacturing unit to support the rising global demand for these products.
