Verus Lubricants is more than just another oil brand – it’s the culmination of decades of expertise, innovation, and a passion for progress. We are the dedicated lubricants division of Chematek, an industrial technology company founded in 1979.
Over the last 40+ years, Chematek has built a reputation as a trusted partner to oil refineries and industries worldwide, uniquely positioning us in the market.
Verus draws on this rich heritage to deliver Italian-engineered lubricants with a difference: we combine top-tier performance with an, customer-first approach that sets us apart from the giants

What Makes Verus Unique?
We’re the only lubricant brand developed by a company that designs and builds refineries and formulates chemicals. That means we understand lubricants from the ground up – from the molecular chemistry to the end-user application. Our team includes veteran industry experts who ensure every Verus formula meets the highest standards.
We operate with a lean structure, controlling our blending, packaging, and logistics end-to-end, which allows us to be highly responsive to our customers’ needs.
Need a quick turnaround on a custom blend or an urgent delivery? Verus can do that, where big multinationals often can’t.
Global Scope. Local Focus.
With Chematek’s network of regional headquarters including Italy, Australia, USA. Singapore, India and China, we have a worldwide reach to source the best materials and technologies.
At the same time, we prioritise on-the-ground relationships – working closely with distributors, partners, and clients in each market to tailor solutions to their reality.
We believe in partnering with our customers to drive progress. Whether that’s helping a distributor launch their own brand (through our co-brand program) or collaborating with a mining company’s maintenance team to extend equipment life, we see our success in our customers’ success
Always Improving
At our core, Verus stands for true quality (‘Verus’ means true in Latin) and true commitment. We leverage high-end technology and expertise to deliver everyday reliability and performance in lubricants.
It’s the same pioneering spirit that Chematek’s founder, Dr. Giovanni Papandrea, instilled in the company: a drive to innovate, to find better solutions, and to never stop improving.
Today, Verus carries that spirit forward in the lubricants arena. From developing cutting-edge formulations that exceed the latest specs, to implementing sustainable practices in our operations, we are always pushing forward
Our Promise
We provide lubricants engineered for performance and reliability, we move quickly and adapt to serve our customers, we offer a comprehensive range to meet any lubrication need, and we work hand-in-hand with our clients for mutual success.
We’re proud to be a challenger in this industry – confident yet approachable, backed by global expertise yet focused on each customer’s story. This is the Verus way.
