Branded finished goods
Supply of established brands may be considered where the selling rights, territory, product status and current documentation are clear.
Finished lubricants
Lubricant supply starts with the application, not the label.
FORET develops B2B supply opportunities for automotive, fleet and selected industrial lubricants. Each request is structured around viscosity, performance level, approval requirement, package size, quantity and destination market.
Products we review
Finished products for defined operating requirements.
The exact range depends on supplier capability and the documents available for the proposed product. Enquiries may cover:
- Passenger-car motor oils
- Heavy-duty diesel engine oils
- Automatic transmission, CVT, DCT and manual transmission fluids
- Gear oils, hydraulic oils and circulating oils
- Greases, coolants, brake fluids and selected service fluids
- Selected industrial and marine lubricants
Product availability, brand rights, formulation, claims and packaging are confirmed for the specific opportunity.
Supply formats
The commercial model must match the product and market.
Private label
Private-label opportunities may be reviewed against formula, performance claims, package design, MOQ, target market and documentation requirements.
Contract manufacturing
Contract-manufactured programmes require a defined specification, quality-control basis, packaging scope, ownership of artwork and clear responsibility for market claims.
Bulk or industrial packs
Drums, pails, IBCs or other formats are considered according to the product, order quantity, handling conditions and destination.
A useful lubricant brief

Claims & approvals
“Meets the requirements” and “officially approved” are not the same statement.
A reference to an API, ACEA or vehicle-manufacturer standard does not by itself prove that the product holds a current formal approval. The proposal must state whether the product is officially approved, recommended or listed by the relevant organisation, or claimed by the lubricant producer to meet a requirement. Supporting documents are reviewed for the specific product and transaction.
Labels, product names and previous shipment records are not used as substitutes for current technical documentation.
Send the application, specification and required pack size.
Attach a product list or target specification. The form will collect the commercial and destination details required for an initial review.
