Della Dibadj, the Export Manager for Hardex and Fildex, stated, Over the past few years Synthetic motor oil has gradually replaced non-syntactic motor oil. Traditional motor & engine oil was more popular; however, we now know that Synthetic base oils give enhanced performance because they are manufactured using advanced chemical processes. In addition, scientists have announced that, in synthetic oil, there is a molecular structure and hence, the properties can be closely controlled. Fully synthetic oils are designed to flow more easily at start-up temperatures where most of the damage can occur. They are also more resistant to heat since they are protected by antioxidants.
Fildex products are currently exported to different markets around the world including North America, South America, Middle East, and Africa. Fildex has over 35 distributors worldwide.
