According to the information provided, the change is intended to ensure continuity for customers and access to the full Molykote offering through a local team with product knowledge and technical expertise.
The Molykote portfolio includes a broad range of specialty lubricants, including anti-friction coatings, compounds, dispersions, greases, oils and fluids, and anti-seize pastes. These products are intended for applications with demanding technical requirements. Their role is to reduce friction and wear, protect components against corrosion, extend service life, and improve the reliability of equipment operating under challenging conditions. According to the description, thanks to a broad technology platform and application-specific solutions, the Molykote portfolio addresses a wide range of lubrication needs in industrial manufacturing and maintenance.
The brand's products are used across many industrial sectors, including automotive, industrial manufacturing, food processing, energy, electronics and general engineering. Typical applications include bearings, gears, chains, valves, electrical components, compressors, plastic and elastomer parts, threaded connections, and high-temperature assemblies.
