Beyond the conventional since 1869
Morris, the name for quality and service since 1869. 'To do the common thing uncommonly well brings success' was the ethos of the Company's entrepreneurial founder, James Kent Morris… a philosophy that has remained a cornerstone of the Morris lubricants business to the present day.

Over 130 years of progress has seen Morris Lubricants achieve the status of Britain's largest privately owned lubricants company serving the home market and exporting to over 50 countries worldwide.

Morris Lubricants continues to be a company with a sense of history and tradition, with sound high quality products and uncompromising customer service but combines these qualities with a refreshing approach to future investment and innovation.

INVESTING IN THE FUTURE
Not shackled by the short-term financial requirements of many plc enterprises, an investment programme has been undertaken that will take the Company into the new Millennium. One of the most flexible automotive and industrial blending plants in Europe has been installed and commissioned, with a capacity of over 60 million litres per annum.

This investment is already bearing fruit in greater production flexibility and reduced lead times. The latest phase of new warehousing, storage facilities, laboratory and research centre is further contributing to a total commitment to customer service.


PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT EXPERTISE
The Company invests heavily in Research and Development to ensure that customers can benefit from the very latest high performance technology, while keeping ahead of growing environmental pressures and legislation.

Meeting customer requirements is paramount so while developing new technology, the old is not discarded where it has application. Morris Lubricants continues to talk about meeting customer needs with a comprehensive range of over 1200 product formulae whilst many producers talk of grade rationalisation and product deletion.

Throughout the years, Morris innovations have endured- 'Golden Penna', 'Golden Film', 'Multilife' and beyond. Morris continues to be one of the few manufacturers still producing lubricating oils for steam, diesel and petrol vintage machines and power plants.

CUSTOMER FOCUS AND CARE SINCE 1869
Dramatic changes have occurred on our planet since 1869. Technology has taken us from candles to laser beams, from the horse and carriage to space travel, from pen and ink to personal computers… Internet and cyberspace! Even so, some things never change.

Morris Lubricants' focus on serving all the requirements within specialist markets has been unswerving and its insistence on quality products has stood the test of time.
Morris Lubricants continues to build on traditions of trust and long term relationships with customers, suppliers and employees and its primary tradition of providing solutions for customers through technically sound products with uncompromising service has never wavered.

QUALITY IN EVERYTHING WE DO
Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI) is a further cornerstone of business development driven by independence.

Total independence in sourcing additives and selected base oils combined with a strategic coastal tank farm ensures optimum selection of 100% Quality Assured raw materials on global basis.

Unlike many of its competitors, Morris Lubricants recognises the benefits of a company owned, dedicated fleet of purpose built vehicles with its drivers attuned to customer requirements and special needs, a fundamental part of the service package.

In addition to ISO 9000 Certification and attainment of the Ministry of Defence Quality Standard AQAP 4, Morris Lubricants is a Quality Assured Supplier to Varity Perkins Engines and Railtrack amongst others. The Company also enjoys a supply position with other market leading operations across a broad spectrum of industry including Lucas Varity, AP Lockheed, Champion Automotive Products, Hanson Group, ARC, Birds Eye Foods, Weetabix and Walkers Crisps etc., special relationships built upon quality, where technical products and supplier performance partnerships really count.

SERVICE AND SUPPORT
In addition to extensive laboratory and technical support facilities at Head Office, Morris Lubricants offers a comprehensive range of in-field services to support its customers' services supported by more than 20 field based technical representatives with many years of practical hands-on experience in Lubrication and Coolant Management.
