FUCHS acquires White Oils and Food Machinery Lubricants
Business from Chevron
Global lubrication specialist FUCHS PETROLUB is expanding by taking over
the worldwide white oils and food machinery specialty lubricants business
of Chevron. The business will be integrated into FUCHS LUBRICANTS CO.
(USA). The Chevron business had sales of EUR 11 million in 2015,
approximately 85% of which are in North America.
"Food Grade customers require support in the areas of Food Safety,
Preventative Maintenance and Lubricant Technology. FUCHS has developed a
successful program around the CASSIDA brand and complementary services,"
said Steve Puffpaff, CEO of FUCHS LUBRICANTS COMPANY. "The acquisition and
new marketer partnerships will significantly improve the scale for support
for Food Grade Lubricant customers."
"We believe this change will benefit our customers and marketers as FUCHS
is a leader in these specialty segments and can meet their needs with an
expanded food machinery product line," said Brian Stripling, General
Manager Brand, Technology & Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM), Chevron
Products Company, a division of Chevron U.S.A. Inc. "Chevron values our
customer relationships and we are committed to a smooth and seamless
transition to FUCHS."
The parties expect the transaction will be effective June 1, 2016.
In 2015, the FUCHS Group accounted for EUR 2.1 billion sales with staff of
4,823. FUCHS LUBRICANTS CO. (USA) made EUR 263 million sales with 349
employees.
