Castrol Edge Motor Oil 5W-30

Castrol is an iconic lubricant brand with a rich history dating back to 1899 when it was founded in London, United Kingdom. Originally known as C.C. Wakefield & Co., the brand gained fame for incorporating castor oil into its lubricant formulas, leading to the name 'Castrol.'

Today, Castrol is a global power player in the automotive and industrial sectors, producing high-performance engine oils like the Edge 5W-30 pictured. The production of these lubricants is highly decentralized to ensure efficient supply chains; therefore, while the brand is British in origin, the oil is manufactured in multiple countries including the UK, USA, Germany, and Belgium, depending on the specific regional market.

Castrol is a wholly owned subsidiary of BP (British Petroleum), one of the world's 'supermajor' oil and gas companies. This ownership provides Castrol with extensive resources for research and development, maintaining its position as a leader in synthetic and performance lubrication technology for both consumer vehicles and professional racing.
