Elemental Analysis: Inductive Coupled Plasma (ICP) testing for precision in composition analysis. Particle Size Distribution: Laser diffraction methods for sub-micron particle characterization. Accelerated Stability Testing: To ensure long-term additive performance.
Custom Formulation Development:
Supporting clients with tailor-made solutions for unique challenges. Our dedicated team of expert technicians and researchers works closely with customers to validate formulations, optimize performance, and address specific application needs.
Our Mission
To revolutionize the lubrication industry by offering innovative, sustainable, and cost-effective additive solutions that enhance performance, reduce downtime, and drive long-term value for our customers.
What Sets Us Apart
Performance Excellence: Our additives (Desilube 88, 98F, 99L/FEL) consistently outperform traditional solutions, delivering up to three times better EP/AW performance at lower treat rates.
Eco-Friendly Approach: We prioritize environmental responsibility, offering non-toxic, biodegradable, and food-grade additives certified by global standards like NSF HX-1 and Ecolabel.
Customer-Centric Services: From technical support to advanced lab testing, we work closely with our partners to ensure seamless integration and maximum performance.
World-Class Lab Support: We are performing many ISO and ASTM tests: ASTM D2596 (4-Ball EP), D2266 (4-Ball Wear), D1743 (corrosion), and EMCOR analysis are conducted in our Pennsylvania laboratory. We work directly with lubricant formulators to validate performance in mineral, synthetic, and bio-based base oil systems before commercial deployment.
Desilube’s product certifications include NSF HX1 registration across multiple product families (Desilube 77, 88, 98F, 99L/FEL), Ecolabel readiness with full LuSC list registration, and REACH compliance for the European market. Our products are distributed globally through partners including SIP (United Kingdom), Univar Solutions (United States), and Knowde. Independent third-party testing protocols including ASTM D2596 (4-Ball EP), D2266 (4-Ball Wear), D1743 (corrosion), and EMCOR analysis are conducted in our Pennsylvania laboratory. We work directly with lubricant formulators to validate performance in mineral, synthetic, and bio-based base oil systems before commercial deployment.
