Global Industrial Solutions

What Global Industrial Solutions does

Global Industrial Solutions (GIS) is a US-based provider of industrial lubrication system solutions, offering a portfolio of on-site reliability services including oil purification, chemical cleaning, high velocity oil flushing, and varnish mitigation, alongside lubrication equipment installation, maintenance, and repair. The company was founded in 2003 in California by the Leara Family and became a certified Chevron Isoclean Service Provider for the Southwestern United States in 2006, supplying domain-specialized cleaning and purification technologies used to extend lubricant life, prevent varnish buildup, and reduce equipment wear in industrial facilities.

Since its acquisition by RelaDyne LLC in June 2021, GIS operates as a wholly-owned subsidiary within one of the largest independent industrial lubricant distributors in the United States, with service coverage spanning the Western United States and product sales extending nationwide through RelaDyne's distribution network. The company sells lubricating oils, greases, gear oils, and related industrial lubricant products (transactional revenue) and delivers field-based reliability services such as tank monitoring, oil analysis, custom blending, and on-site fueling (professional services revenue), supported by a direct field-sales motion, account management, and RelaDyne's online customer portal.

GIS targets a horizontal industrial customer base across manufacturing, fleets and transport, power generation, mining, and refining and petrochemical facilities, with primary use cases centered on equipment lubrication, oil purification, and preventive maintenance. Pricing is quote-based rather than publicly disclosed, and the integrated reliability service model embeds GIS technicians and engineers inside customer operations, creating switching friction through installed equipment (Lubrimist oil mist systems, Mistlock bearing lubrication, centralized grease systems) and recurring service contracts.
