OUR STORY
Pioneering Beginnings to Industry Leadership
Founded in 1981 in Gebze, Türkiye's industrial hub, TARMOND began as an agricultural chemicals producer on a 10,000 sq.mt company-owned site. Today, we are a trusted manufacturer of high-performance automotive and industrial lubricants, driven by innovation, partnership, and family legacy.
A Turning Point
In 1987, a pivotal collaboration with one of the worldwide renowned gas and automative lubricants manufacturer marked our entry into lubricant blending and filling. This partnership cemented our reputation for quality, leading to long-term production alliances with global brands seeking reliable local manufacturing.
Generational Legacy
Our founder, Mustafa Şevket Sipahi, pioneered advancements in Türkiye's agricultural chemical sector. Now led by the third generation of the family, we uphold his values of integrity, quality, and forward-thinking solutions.
Expanding Horizons
By 2000, we diversified into industrial lubricants and metalworking fluids, combining cutting-edge chemistry with cost efficiency to optimize industrial processes. To us, lubrication is where science meets craftsmanship—a blend of art and technology!

TARMOND meets the highest global standards, holding ISO 9001 (Quality), ISO 14001 (Environmental), and ISO 45001 (Occupational Health & Safety) certifications. These reflect our unwavering commitment to sustainable growth, safety, and customer trust.
