New Projects
LUBRICANT & GREASE INDUSTRY
MANUFACTURING AND MARKETING

The global lubricants demand is rising, fueled by the

increased automotive demand and growing
manufacturing sector especially in the emerging
economies. Recognizing this market opportunity,
Zahara Group has entered the manufacturing and
marketing of Grease and Lubricants under the
LUBISLE Brand.

STORAGE TERMINAL
A STRATEGIC ASSET IN TRADE

The products to be manufactured in the new Zahara

Grease and Lubricants plants ranges from Hydraulic
Oils, Gear Oils, Engine Oils, Viscosity index improvers
from Lubricants Production units and Lithium and
Calcium grease from Grease Production units. While
the Middle East demand is dominated by the
automotive sector, African and Asian economies
demand is driven by industrial as well as automotive
sector.

In coming years, a large share of the petroleum

products demand is expected to come from Asia,
Middle East & Africa. As a result, trading hubs like UAE
and Singapore will see increased transactional activity.
To strategically upon leverage this opportunity; Zahara
Group is setting up an ultra-modern storage terminal at
Al Hamriyah port in Sharjah (United Arab Emirates) in
close proximity to the Strait of Hormuz.

Keeping this in mind, the product portfolio is designed

to meet a wide range of Automobile and Industrial
requirements. Zahara is also setting up a wide
distribution network across Middle East, Asia and
Africa. Zahara Group believes that mutual trust and a
long term partnership are essential elements for a
successful business and strives for an equitable
partnership with its distributors.

With a third of global oil exports passing through the

region, the addition of oil terminal is set to take the
trading capabilities of the firm to the next level. It brings
enhanced flexibility in pricing, ability to fulfill bulk
orders and meet fragmented distribution requirements.
At the same time, the firm can now insulate itself much
better from selling goods at suboptimal prices and also
save on rentals during waiting period for making sales
at better prices.

protection system

ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSIBILITY
ZAHARA Group has been at the forefront of
environmental awareness and renewable energy
management policies at a corporate policy level. We
actively measure, analyze and evaluate the impact of our
activities on the environment, on our technicians and our
ecosystem and evaluate this against established
benchmarks.
We focus on implementing methods and process that
help us conserve natural resources, minimize
environmental impact, reduce our carbon footprint and
increase recycling. This is ensured through provision of
solutions for our clients and is embedded in our
production
processes,
procurement
methods,
subcontracting practices and waste management and
disposal techniques. For example disposing used oil in
wrong manner has the potential to pollute land, water
and infrastructure. In fact it takes only one liter of oil to
contaminate one million liters of water. So we need to
recover and recycle as much as possible.

Triple bottom line creates competitive advantage

sections of the community and promote education,
healthcare, child welfare, occupational training and
other support activities that enable individuals,
families to be more independent, self-reliant and
economically stable.
