Providing high-efficiency, multi-grade motor oils engineered for urban traffic stresses and CARB compliance requirements
The Greater Los Angeles area represents one of the most intense, demanding operating environments for internal combustion engines globally. With extensive stop-and-go highway traffic congestion across corridors like the I-405 and Interstate 5, paired with high ambient desert heat during peak summers in the San Fernando Valley and Inland Empire, engine oils are subjected to extreme thermal loads. These factors accelerate thermal degradation and shear thin-film lubrication boundaries.
Local logistics fleets, last-mile delivery services operating around the Port of Los Angeles and Port of Long Beach, and high-performance passenger vehicles depend on motor oils that demonstrate superior High-Temperature High-Shear (HTHS) stability. To prevent early engine failure, modern specifications demand formulations that prevent Low-Speed Pre-Ignition (LSPI) in turbocharged gasoline direct-injection (TGDI) units while optimizing fuel economy.
Compliance is paramount in California. With the California Air Resources Board (CARB) enforcing strict limits on particulate matters and exhaust emissions, automotive and heavy-duty vehicles require lubricants compatible with advanced catalytic converters and emission aftertreatment systems. Our formulations leverage low-SAPS (Sulfated Ash, Phosphorus, and Sulfur) technologies, preserving the life of exhaust catalysts while complying with South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) and state standards.
Integrating Shandong Longhai Lubrication’s vast blending capacities with direct-to-port logistics channels to Los Angeles ports offers US distributors and blending partners unmatched cost efficiency. Rather than handling raw base oil sourcing locally, bulk purchasing from our state-of-the-art Zibo blending plant guarantees high consistency and volume elasticity.
By bypassing multiple layers of intermediaries, domestic distributors can obtain finished lubricants at pricing that absorbs ocean freight costs while leaving healthy operating margins. Our automated packaging structures ensure that bulk drums, IBC totes, and customized consumer-ready retail bottles reach American ports ready for warehousing and regional distribution.
15+ Years of Technological Precision, Global Certifications, and Industry-Proven Lubrication Solutions
Shandong Longhai Lubrication Technology Development Co., Ltd. was established in 2009 and is headquartered in Zibo, Shandong. It is a high-tech enterprise integrating R&D, production and sales. The company has been deeply involved in the lubricant industry for more than 15 years, has built a complete industrial chain system, and is committed to providing high-quality lubrication solutions for the global industrial and transportation fields.
As a reliable lubricant manufacturer in the industry, Longhai Technology owns its own brand "Century Longhai" and the international strategic cooperation brand British "A Ba" series of products. The products cover diesel engine oil, gasoline engine oil, gear oil, hydraulic transmission oil, anti-wear hydraulic oil, special engine oil for engineering machinery, special oil for natural gas, full synthetic oil, automotive urea solution, antifreeze, special engine oil for motorcycles, industrial oil, automatic transmission oil and many other lubricant varieties. The brand is insured by PICC China People's Insurance Company and quality insurance.
Longhai Technology has always insisted on innovation-driven development. Its annual R&D investment accounts for more than 5% of its annual revenue. It has established strategic cooperation with many universities and scientific research institutions to continuously optimize lubrication technology and promote industry progress. At present, the company's production base covers an area of 131 acres, with an annual production capacity of 200,000 tons. It is equipped with intelligent production lines and precision laboratories to meet the customized needs of different customers.
The company has advanced blending and fully automatic production and filling equipment. The filling production line adopts the principle of metering filling, which is suitable for filling various lubricating oils and ensures the filling accuracy of 1‰-2‰. While ensuring the filling accuracy, it increases the filling speed by 20%-35%, effectively increases the work efficiency, and realizes the standardized production of the enterprise. It guarantees the delivery speed and quality of our company to a great extent.
Engineered to perform under extreme work environments and verified by international automotive bodies
The company has passed ISO-9001-2015 quality system certification, 14001 environmental management system certification, 18001 health management system certification. Automatic transmission Mercedes-Benz certification has laid the foundation for the healthy development of the company and the stability of product quality. The company strictly follows international standards and introduces foreign production processes and testing technologies to ensure that the products can still perform excellently under extreme working conditions, helping customers improve equipment efficiency and reduce maintenance costs.
Custom formulations, brand value-added services, and dynamic production lines configured to international regulations
Fully synthetic and semi-synthetic lubricant formulations tailored to vehicle/equipment requirements, climatic conditions or market positioning to meet international standards such as API/ACEA. We support small-scale trial production to large-scale production, covering engine oil, transmission oil, industrial lubricants and other full categories. Filling specifications are flexible and optional.
R&D Integration: Working directly with leading research institutes to customize cold-cranking viscosity, thermal evaporation rates (Noack), and friction reduction parameters.
Package Customization: We offer packaging design, label printing, and technical documentation support to assist in building a premier brand image.
Expanding capabilities across industrial sectors, heavy transmission machinery, and global commercial logistics networks
The operational landscape in Southern California demands custom-engineered lubricants tailored to specific commercial sectors:
Navigating global supply chain volatility demands robust infrastructure. Shandong Longhai Lubrication guarantees uninterrupted supply chains by locking in base oil contracts with leading refining partners and sustaining large inventories of key additive components.
Our proximity to Qingdao Port allows for direct shipment tracking to the Port of Los Angeles. In combination with our automated, high-precision blending lines that maintain a 1‰-2‰ metering accuracy, customers receive stable formulation properties across bulk imports, minimizing batch-to-batch variation risks.
