Company Growth

Since our founding in 1977, Leander Lubricants has achieved continuous growth resulting from our commitment to technical expertise in formulation, manufacturing, customer service, and industrial process chemical applications.

This new building will allow us to keep pace with increased demands for our research and development, and manufacturing expertise.

Custom Solutions . . . Not “Stock” Answers

Before we'll fill any order, we complete a product specification work sheet. This takes more effort, but assures superior application results.

We start by evaluating your current process fluid use. This includes the dilution ratio and the problems you're experiencing. We examine foaming, odor, galling, finish, parts cleaning, tool life, dermatitis, residual film and price. We even evaluate your application in light of evolving OSHA and EPA rules.

Only after reviewing your application and problems do we start our recommendation process. We examine our wide array of product formulas to determine which will best meet your needs. Then we look at adjusting the formulation to better address specific aspects of your application. Only after this evaluation and formula review process do we recommend a specific product. That's why we say Leander Lubricants provides “custom solutions, not stock answers.”
