The specialty grease industry has long been dominated by imported brands. High prices, long lead times, and difficult customization are common pain points for domestic manufacturers.
According to the National Bureau of Statistics, China’s import dependence for industrial lubricating materials remains high in recent years. At the same time, a new generation of domestic grease companies with independent R&D capabilities has emerged in the Yangtze and Pearl River Deltas.
VNOVO Lubricant is one of them — based in Dongguan, Guangdong.
From Five People to an Industrial Grease Source Factory
Public records show VNOVO was established in 2009, with origins tracing back to 2007. Founder Ma Zhikuan started with a team of just five people in Tangxia, Dongguan, and progressively grew the business.
The company’s current positioning: industrial grease source factory.
According to the company profile, VNOVO occupies 6,000 m² of factory land with 15,000 m² of workshop space. Annual output reaches 820 tons with a daily capacity of 3 tons. Main products include sealing silicone grease, dry lubricants, gear grease, switch contact grease, and low-temperature grease.
Japanese Technology Partnership
In 2019, VNOVO entered into a partnership with Japan’s DAIZO Corporation, becoming the sole exclusive distributor of NICHIMOLY in China.
Japanese technology and production processes were introduced to VNOVO’s manufacturing lines. The acquisition of core equipment including planetary mixers and three-roll mills gave this domestic company the capability to match imported quality standards. According to the company, certain products have already been exported back to Japan and Germany.
High-Tech Enterprise Certification
In 2024, VNOVO was certified as a High-Tech Enterprise.
The company currently holds 30+ national patents, including 8 invention patents covering areas such as noise-reducing gear grease, planetary reducer grease, and fluorescent dry lubricants.
