Innov Oil, an independent manufacturer of viscosity index improvers (VIII), has announced the completion of its 4,000 ton plant expansion in Singapore. The expansion increases the production capacity of its X Series range to support the growing global demand for viscosity index improvers.

“We have seen steady growth on the amorphous X series range of bale-form polymers as the market  transitions towards a higher quality multi-grade lubricant,” said Innov Oil’s Director of Business Development Marcus Arthur. “The increased plant capacity will allow Innov to support additional volumes from  existing customers, shorten lead-times and develop further markets.” 

Opened in 2009, the Singapore facility produces a wide range of mono and multi grade OCP viscosity  modifiers and index improvers. Innov Oil also offers custom-tailored and novel solutions to lubricant  blenders as they seek unique performance features for their finished products.
