Blending & Mixing
Our automated blending systems handle everything from small specialty batches to high-volume production runs. We blend conventional and synthetic motor oils, gear lubricants, hydraulic fluids, coolants, and industrial fluids with precision and consistency.
Filling Lines
Multiple automated filling lines allow us to run different products and packaging formats simultaneously. From quart bottles to 275-gallon totes, our equipment is calibrated for accuracy and speed without sacrificing quality.
Quality Assurance
Every batch is tested in our on-site laboratory before release. We perform viscosity, density, flash point, and other critical tests to ensure every product leaving our facility meets the exact specifications required.
Packaging & Labeling
We handle complete packaging operations including container filling, capping, labeling, shrink wrapping, and palletizing. Your products arrive shelf-ready with the professional finish your brand demands.
Warehousing
Our facility includes dedicated warehousing space for raw materials and finished goods. We can hold inventory and release shipments on your schedule, reducing your need for separate storage and logistics coordination.
Logistics & Shipping
We coordinate domestic and international shipping from our Pasadena, Texas location. Full truckload, LTL, ocean freight, and container loading are all handled in-house so your products reach any destination efficiently.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What is contract lubricant manufacturing?
Contract manufacturing means you outsource the production of your lubricant products to a facility like ours. You maintain control of your brand, formulations, and sales channels while we handle the blending, filling, packaging, and quality testing. It allows you to scale production without investing millions in your own plant, equipment, and staff.
What types of fluids can you manufacture?
We manufacture a full range of automotive and industrial fluids including conventional and synthetic motor oils, gear oils, automatic and manual transmission fluids, hydraulic oils, greases, antifreeze and coolants, diesel exhaust fluid, brake fluid, and specialty industrial lubricants. If you have a product that is not on this list, contact us to discuss whether we can produce it.
What is your production capacity?
Our 95,000 square foot facility operates around the clock with multiple blending tanks and filling lines running simultaneously. We produce over 1,000 SKUs for clients across the U.S. and more than 38 international markets. Whether you need a few hundred cases per month or full container loads weekly, we have the capacity to handle it.
How do you ensure quality and consistency?
Quality is built into every step of our process. We test incoming raw materials, monitor blending parameters in real time, and perform comprehensive lab testing on every finished batch. Our facility maintains full lot traceability, and we retain samples from every production run. If a product does not meet spec, it does not ship.
What are typical lead times for contract manufacturing?
For standard products with materials in stock, typical production lead times are 2 to 4 weeks from order confirmation. Custom formulations or specialty packaging may require additional time for material sourcing and setup. We work closely with our clients on production planning to ensure on-time delivery, and we prioritize clear communication if anything affects the schedule.
Is there a minimum order quantity?
Minimum order quantities depend on the product type and packaging format. We work with companies of all sizes, from growing brands placing their first production order to established distributors running large volumes every month. Contact our team to discuss your requirements and we will put together a plan that makes sense for your current volume and growth trajectory.
