changes to grease products
new naming and packaging will classify products by thickener type to enhance customer experience
Chevron Marine Lubricants has updated the branding for its line of grease products, including new naming and packaging, intended to simplify the product selection process for customers. This optimization ensures Chevron’s greases meet current and future equipment needs while maintaining quality and performance.
The new package designs feature a simplified naming structure that categorizes products by the thickening agent used. Additionally, the new packaging includes improved product information and a QR code for easy access to additional details, helping customers identify the appropriate product for their needs.
“In the long term, our strategy is to offer a diverse portfolio across thickener types that will meet the needs of our customers and be suitable for a wide range of applications, both now and in the future. Overall, Chevron’s portfolio of greases will be streamlined to simplify the product selection process for customers.”
Matthew Lynch, Senior Manager, Global Lubricants Product & Technology.
The products in the restructured grease portfolio includes:
simple lithium
including MULTIFAK® and ULTRA-DUTY®, heavy-duty multi-purpose greases for extreme-pressure applications.
lithium complex
featuring STARPLEX® grease, good for extra-duty, heavy-duty and extreme pressure applications.
polyurea
including BLACK PEARL® and SRI grease product line, for filled-for-life and high-speed motor applications.
calcium
including TEXCLAD® and MARFAK grease, an extra-duty product for sprayable applications.
The transition to the new names will take place on a country-by-country basis. Marine customers can expect to see the changes as they are rolled out in their respective supply regions and ports. We will update the Lube Chart and the World Port Directory to reflect the name changes once the global transition is complete. Until then, the current product names will still apply.
The list of current marine products undergoing this name change includes:
* Texclad 2 name will continue in US supply points only.
† SRI Grease name will continue in AP supply points. Customers can also reach out to their sales account managers for further information.
