What Yushiro do Brasil Indústria Química Ltda does

Yushiro do Brasil Indústria Química Ltda is a Brazilian industrial chemical manufacturer operating as a wholly-owned subsidiary of Japan's Yushiro Inc. (founded 1944, Tokyo). Established in Brazil in 1973 and headquartered with manufacturing in Caçapava, São Paulo, the company develops, produces, and sells industrial fluids for the metalworking industry under the "Ken", "Cut", "Former", "Cleaner", "Nonruster", and "Oil" product families. The core technology comprises locally R&D-adapted formulations across soluble cutting fluids, semi-synthetic and synthetic fluids, integral cutting oils, stamping and deep-drawing fluids, industrial cleaners, corrosion protection fluids, hydraulic and gear lubricants, and Minimum Quantity Lubrication (MQL) fluids. Differentiated technical features include mineral-oil-free synthetics free of chlorine, boron, nitrites, and phenolic derivatives, microbiologically stable emulsions tolerant of lubricant-oil leakage contamination, low foam and low mist formulations, and aerospace-grade chemistries for aluminum and titanium machining. The portfolio spans more than 65 SKUs across categories such as KEN Fluidos Solúveis, Óleos de Corte, Estampagem, Lubrificantes, Limpeza Industrial, Fluidos Anticorrosivos, and Óleos para Processos.

The company's commercial model is direct enterprise field sales supported by a specialized technical assistance team. Sales engineers perform on-site diagnosis of customer operations, recommend specific fluid solutions, and provide continuous monitoring plus failure-prevention services including sample analysis, real-condition testing, fluid control recommendations, and operational training. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; customers engage through a website contact form or dedicated phone/email channels organized by function (Commercial, SAC, Technical Assistance, Purchasing, Financial). Customers are industrial enterprises in vertical markets including automotive and auto parts, aerospace, agricultural machinery, white goods (linha branca), machines and equipment, motorcycles, tubes, oil and gas, tools, construction, and general metallurgy. Documented outcome economics include up to 35–38% reductions in cutting fluid consumption, 25–28% increases in tool life, and 6–12 months without microbiological contamination in emulsions. The company holds ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certifications (valid through November 2027), operates through a Brazilian legal entity in São Paulo state, and serves primarily Brazil with documented presence also in Argentina as part of the parent Yushiro Group's regional footprint across more than 30 countries.
