What Opet Fuchs does
Opet Fuchs is a Turkish lubricants manufacturer operating as a joint venture between Germany's Fuchs SE and Turkey's Opet (part of Koç Holding), with Fuchs SE announcing in 2026 that it will acquire the remaining stake to become the full owner (expected close Q2 2026). The company produces automotive and industrial lubricants — including engine oils, transmission oils, hydraulic oils, greases, antifreezes, brake fluids, marine engine oils, and tractor/machinery oils — at a modern facility in Izmir Aliağa opened in 2019. Its portfolio spans the Opet Madeni Yağları core line, the globally distributed Fuchs premium brand, the Ford-specific FMY sub-brand, and the ROM and Wynn's auto-care product lines. Customers span passenger vehicles, light and heavy commercial vehicles, motorcycles, agricultural and construction equipment, marine vessels, and industrial operators (manufacturing, metal processing, mining), with the metal processing segment recognizing Opet Fuchs as its most preferred lubricant manufacturer in Turkey.
Revenue is generated through one-time product sales across three channels: a wide dealer network covering all regions of Turkey, a distributor network of 17+ named partners across major Turkish cities, and the Fullcheck Shop e-commerce storefront. The company complements product sales with technical services — laboratory oil analysis (Yağ Analizi), fluid and oil maintenance management, real-time fluid monitoring (Fullcheck Sense), technical consulting, and the Madeni Yağ Akademisi (Lubricant Academy) training programs. Named enterprise customers include Ford Turkey (with Ford Q1 Quality Certification at the Aliağa facility) and Otokar (strategic collaboration). The Fullmatch online tool provides vehicle-specific lubricant recommendations, and specializations for emission-controlled engines (EGR, DPF, SCR) and Euro 6/7 compliance underpin the product offering.
Operationally, the company employs 250+ staff across Turkey (per disclosed source). Pricing is quote-based through dealers and distributors and not publicly disclosed. Quality credentials include Ford Q1, SAP Quality Awards 2020 first place, and metal processing sector leadership. Fuchs SE consolidated full ownership with a leadership transition in 2026 (Ahmet Oral appointed General Manager), positioning the Turkish entity as a wholly-owned subsidiary within Fuchs SE's group-wide operations.
