Motul
History of Motul
Motul dates back to 1853 in the USA, where it was part of the Swan-Finch portfolio. Motul didn’t make motor oil then as there were no motor vehicles to put it in. Instead, the focus was on the whale-oil business for igniting lanterns- owned then by the Rockefeller Group.
In the 1930s Ernst Zaugg became the French distributor for Motul and, in 1957, acquired Motul in its entirety. Motul has remained the French family’s business ever since. The oil brand took advantage of the opportunities offered by the evolving industry to focus on innovation and excellence.
To continue with this ethos, in 1953 Motul launched the first true Multigrade oil to market. Innovation did not stop there as in 1966 Motul brought the first semi-synthetic oil to the automotive industry, Motul Century 2100. Following this up, in 1970, with 300V -the first fully synthetic motor oil on the market. Developed from Motul’s experience with Ester-based products in the aviation industry by Michel Sinson. Both these products have defined the path of the lubricant market ever since.
Motul also has a range of mineral and synthetic oils specifically tailored for Classic vehicles of all types. These have been developed and formulated with a deep understanding of what it takes to keep vehicles of all eras running at the optimum.
