Transnational Blenders

What Transnational Blenders does

Transnational Blenders B.V. is an independent Dutch lubricant blender headquartered in Dordrecht, founded in 1963 under the name International Cooperative Petroleum Association and operating today as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the ENVIEM Holding family group (acquired 2000). The company operates a high-capacity plant engineered for large-product blends, with annual production capacity of approximately 140,000 metric tons, more than 19 million liters of storage across 120 tanks, seven semi-automatic filling lines, and a 20,000 m² site area that doubled during a 2001-2006 expansion phase. Its product portfolio spans passenger car motor oils, heavy-duty diesel engine oils, gear and transmission oils, hydraulic oils, agricultural oils, small engine oils, industrial oils, compressor and turbine oils, marine oils, gas engine oils, and specialties (process and moulding oils, AdBlue), available in bulk and in packaging from 1-liter cans to 1,000-liter IBCs.

The company serves three primary customer cohorts on a B2B basis: (i) oil multinationals, brand owners, and lubricant distributors that outsource blending and packaging under private-label agreements; (ii) the international marine sector, supplied with motor oils, bunkering services, and gas engine oils; and (iii) automotive, agricultural, and industrial end-users requiring tailored lubricant formulations. Quality is supported by an in-house laboratory that performs component and blended-product testing, customer oil analyses, and formula development, and operations are certified to ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 standards.

Revenue is generated through three streams: (1) lubricant manufacturing and sales (the core stream); (2) private-label manufacturing where Transnational Blenders produces and packages products under customers' own brands while customers retain sales and marketing functions; and (3) logistics and bunkering services, including 24/7 vessel deliveries in Rotterdam, Amsterdam, and Antwerp, plus warehousing of up to 5,600 pallets and inland waterway distribution via the company's own jetty on the North Sea. Pricing is quote-based and individually negotiated under multi-year B2B contracts; no public pricing exists. Distribution is direct and enterprise-led, with no reseller/retail channel layer and customers spread across 93 countries.
