Abu dhabi: During its participation in 'Make it in the Emirates', ADNOC Distribution announced strategic partnerships with Emirates Global Aluminium (EGA) and Borouge valued at more than AED60 million, aimed at enhancing industrial performance and supporting local manufacturing.
According to Emirates News Agency, these partnerships will provide ADNOC Distribution's partners access to a comprehensive portfolio of 520 products, designed to meet diverse operational requirements and supported by a 96 percent In-Country Value (ICV) score in lubricant manufacturing.
ADNOC Distribution lubricants are manufactured in the UAE and exported to more than 50 countries worldwide, reflecting the company's continued growth. The strategic agreements at 'Make it in the Emirates' reinforce the growth of ADNOC Distribution's lubricants business and its role in supporting UAE industrial development. These agreements are expected to support local production volumes and long-term supply commitments across key industrial sectors in the UAE.
The agreements, signed with Emirates Global Aluminium (EGA) and Borouge, highlight ADNOC Distribution's expanding role as a key enabler of high-performance, locally manufactured lubrication solutions. Collectively, these strategic partnerships are valued at more than AED 60 million and underscore ADNOC Distribution's commitment to delivering UAE-developed and made high-performance lubricants, strengthening local supply chains, and supporting a resilient industrial ecosystem.
ADNOC Distribution continues to position ADNOC Voyager as the UAE's number one lubricants brand, supporting national industrial growth while building global recognition for quality, innovation, and technical expertise. This is supported by ADNOC Distribution's portfolio of 520 lubricant products, which address diverse customer needs across automotive, industrial, and specialty segments.
The continued strength of ADNOC Voyager, its premium lubricant brand, is further demonstrated by its recognition as the first in the Middle East to achieve the latest API SQ / ILSAC GF-7 certification. ADNOC Distribution's collaboration with Emirates Global Aluminium (EGA) will support the UAE's industrial development, enabling the supply of high-performance lubricants for efficient, large-scale industrial operations. EGA already spends around AED 8 billion annually on goods and services from UAE suppliers, with more than 40 percent of its total procurement directed locally.
The strategic partnership with Borouge will focus on advancing localized production of specialized materials, including pharma-grade white oil, strengthening in-country manufacturing capabilities, and reducing reliance on imports. This includes initial production volumes of over 40 metric tonnes already developed and tested within the UAE, with the parties now progressing toward scaled production.
Additionally, ADNOC Distribution and Borouge are developing sustainable and circular solutions within the lubricants value chain, including a lube oil packaging solution. This initiative aligns with ADNOC Distribution's broader sustainability and decarbonization ambitions while maintaining the reliability and high-performance standards customers expect.
Building on this momentum, ADNOC Distribution continues to strengthen its position as a globally competitive, UAE-made lubricants leader, enabling critical industries with advanced solutions while contributing to a resilient and future-ready economy.
