Lubrication Solutions for the Transport Industry
The transport Industry is large and hugely diverse. It covers everything from transporting passengers by public transport in cities, around countries or in international coaches to the transport of goods locally, nationally and internationally . In all cases ,it’s a high-value business with many challenges and risks. There are large investments in equipment, volatile fuel costs, high labour costs and potentially expensive repair and maintenance charges.
A breakdown in a foreign country can be very expensive. Towing can be costly, especially if specialized equipment is needed to handle large trucks or heavy loads. Repair costs can also be higher due to currency exchange rates, limited access to parts, or the need to buy parts locally at a premium. There’s also the expense of the repatriation of people.
And there are potentially high indirect costs. A breakdown often leads to missed deadlines. This can damage relationships with clients and may incur penalties or loss of contracts. Delays can affect the entire supply chain too, particularly if the goods are perishable, time-sensitive, or part of a just-in-time delivery model.
Making your transport business efficient, reliable, predictable and more profitable
So, the key is to do all you can to avoid any breakdown at any time. The good news is that this can be achieved through Logan’s preventive maintenance schedules and our best-in-class Lubrication solutions.

Over the years we’ve seen the management of some transport companies focus on cheap lubricants. They wrongly believe that all Lubricants are the same. At Logan we know better.

Our team of Logan Engineers and global oil monitoring partners will regularly perform a “health check” of your equipment.Then, together with your maintenance people, we develop a robust, preventive maintenance schedule.
