Castrol Motor Oil

Castrol is a world-leading brand of industrial and automotive lubricants. The brand trace its history back to the founding of CC Wakefield & Company by Charles Wakefield in 1899. The name 'Castrol' was derived from castor oil, which was added to the company's mineral oils to create a lubricant thick enough to work in early internal combustion engines.

Today, Castrol products are manufactured in dozens of facilities globally to serve local markets in Europe, North America, and Asia. Since 2000, Castrol has been a major part of the BP (British Petroleum) group, functioning as its specialized lubricant arm. The brand is renowned for its high-performance synthetic lines like Castrol EDGE and its long-standing history in motorsports and aviation.
