About RS CLARE R.S. Clare & Co. Ltd. was founded in Liverpool in 1748 by Richard S. Clare at the start of the Industrial Revolution. We are the longest established company manufacturing lubricants in the United Kingdom. Despite our age - 260 YEARS - our company is innovative, dynamic and constantly pursuing new ways to improve the services and products we offer. Our origins lay in distillation of turpentine, and 'paint, oil and colour' became our business. Throughout the 19th and 20th Centuries we distilled tar, invented thermoplastic road markings, pioneered the application of cationic slurryseal and we hid our light under a bushel by manufacturing lubricating greases for major oil companies. Today we operate a Surface Coatings Division, making and applying antiskid surfaces and markings. Our Industrial Lubricants Division has built on our long experience in greasemaking by carving out niche markets for speciality products in Rail, Oil & Gas, Steel, Marine and Automotive industries throughout the world. Our Private Label Lubricants Divison continues to manufacture conventional and non-conventional lubricants under customers' own brands. We have survived for over two and half centuries because we know people will only stay as customers if we continue to satisfy their needs. We have done so with several major oil companies and end users of specialist lubricants, road markings and surface treatments for a very long time - and many competitors envy our reputation. The pursuit of excellence is taken very seriously by R.S. Clare. We operate to the internationally recognised standards of ISO9001:2000 Quality Assurance and ISO 14001:2004 Environmental Management, TS 16949 Automotive Quality Standard.
