A Legacy of Innovation
The anniversary celebration will honor the rich history of the Mobil Delvac brand. Established in 1925, DELVAC stands for “Diesel Engine Lubricant by Vacuum Oil.” Initially created to support the emerging diesel industry, the brand demonstrated remarkable resilience against global challenges, eventually becoming the gold standard across multiple industries.

Throughout the century, Mobil Delvac teams have made diesel technology indispensable worldwide. They enhanced cargo truck reliability for efficient material flow, improved machine resilience in harsh climates, and developed lubricant analysis programs for better operational planning.

Looking Ahead
As the world evolves, Mobil Delvac remains at the forefront of innovation and excellence. The expansion of global highway systems and rising consumer demands have highlighted the diesel engine’s endurance and all-weather performance. Emissions regulations led to the development of exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) technology, which in turn spurred the creation of new lubricants and enhanced the efficiency of internal combustion engines.

The Mobil Delvac team’s anniversary celebration will spotlight these advancements and more, showcasing the brand’s unwavering commitment to pushing the boundaries of possibility.
