Masahiko Mori, Chairman of the Supervisory Board, and Christian Thönes, Chairman of the Executive Board of DMG MORI AKTIENGESELLSCHAFT.

  "A good partnership shows in challenging times: Especially in the current extremely difficult material supply situation, trusting and reliable teamwork has once again gained in importance. A good network of strong partners is now more important than ever," Christian Thönes emphasized.

  "Our common goal was and is to set standards in the field of lubricants for machine tools with innovative product developments. In the end, we all benefit from this endeavor. DMG MORI as a machine tool builder, FUCHS as a lubricant manufacturer, and especially our joint customers. We are therefore very pleased about this special recognition of our cooperation in partnership," said Stefan Fuchs at the award ceremony.

  DMG MORI AG, a leading global manufacturer of cutting machine tools, and FUCHS have been linked by a technology partnership since 2017. Together, new lubricant solutions and services for machine tool applications will be developed to advance the digitalization of production processes and the condition monitoring of machines and systems.

FUCHS PETROLUB SE, which operates globally in the lubricants industry, has earned recognition as a “Partner-level Supplier” for 2019 and was also named “Parts Supplier of the Year” in the John Deere Achieving Excellence Program. The Partner-level status is Deere & Company’s highest supplier rating.

FUCHS was selected for the honor in recognition of its dedication to providing products and service of outstanding quality as well as its commitment to continuous improvement.

FUCHS is a supplier of lubricants, engine coolants and greases to John Deere’s operation in various countries all over the globe.

• FUCHS can reflect on longstanding development partnerships in the field of initial filling.
• We have been selected as the preferred supplier by a leading Scandinavian commercial vehicle manufacturer.
• In 2014, FUCHS received "The Volkswagen Group Award". The award presented annually by VW to honor its best suppliers provides further evidence of the good cooperation with our customers.

FUCHS has the world's most diverse portfolio of bio-lubricants, ranging from basic chainsaw oil to high performance engine oil. Many of our biodegradable products carry the European environmental label (Euro-Marguerite). New series of biodegradable hydraulic and gear oils were developed within the PLANTO range on the basis of saturated ester. The proportion of renewable raw materials is greater than 50% here, and the products have demonstrated their performance in the field.

In addition to this, FUCHS plays an active part in the European standardization process for bio-based lubricants. Among other things, this includes work on terminology, as well as determining the bio-based content, sustainability criteria, eco-auditing and certification. A FUCHS employee leads a work group of the European Committee for developing a general standard for bio-lubricants.
