History
The heritage of our past gives us a keen eye on the future. In 1839, Schaeffer Manufacturing Company provided greases and oils for wagon trains and steamboats. Times and technology changed. So did Schaeffer. Since then, we've developed many of our current concepts in lubrication, including advanced additives for performance, friction modifiers for fuel economy and synthetics for extended lubricant life.
Our strong foundation of success and our pioneering change along the way are predictors of great things to come at Schaeffer Manufacturing Company. Adapting to the changing needs of our customers for over 175 years by inventing new technologies gives Schaeffer a special advantage. Knowing where we've come from provides the best route to our customers' future success.
