OUR CHEMISTRY, YOUR COMPETITIVE EDGE.
Why leading formulators choose QLS
MANUFACTURING EXCELLENCE. Our sulfonation process minimizes unreacted alkylates, base oils, undesirable aromatics and other unwanted byproducts.
DESIGNED FOR SUPERIOR CHEMICAL PERFORMANCE. Our products contain alkylates and other sulfonated organic compounds that have been carefully selected for their chemical activity and contribution to final product performance.
We supply our products in a variety of diluents, including mineral, white, synthetic, bio-based and biodegradable base oils that can be fit for purpose.
CONSISTENT QUALITY FROM SAMPLE TO RAIL CAR. Tight process control ensures purity, stability and repeatability. Molecular weight distribution is among the narrowest across synthetic products.
NSF HX-1, KOSHER- AND HALAL- CERTIFIED OPTIONS. Trusted for food machinery lubricants and environments requiring strict safety compliance.
TRANSPARENCY. With our barium, sodium and calcium sulfonates, we routinely supply:
- Regulatory compliance data, including REACH registrations,
- Toxicology summaries and environmental impact assessments,
- Performance and stability benefits relative to alternatives.
NORTH AMERICAN ORIGIN. We manufacture calcium, barium and sodium sulfonates and sulfonic acids at our manufacturing plant in Jalisco, Mexico. We are integrated into the North American manufacturing base and source +90% of our raw materials from the region. Our products are USMCA-compliant and can be imported into the United States duty-free.
Our manufacturing process is based on the sulfonation of select organic compounds using sulfuric acid, which allows an optimal control of the reactions and a superior yield.
We ship our products worldwide and supply the leading lubricant manufacturers in the US, Europe, Asia, Mexico and South America. Our products are available in bulk (tank trucks and railcars), and in drums and totes.
