O Grupo FUCHS tem o prazer de anunciar que o produto ECOCOOL GLOBAL 1000 recebeu o Prémio DMG MORI Partner 2025 / Sustainability Award, no âmbito do programa DMQP (DMG MORI Qualified Products), promovido pela DMG MORI.
Este prémio é atribuído pela DMG MORI a produtos integrados no programa DMQP que demonstram níveis de excelência particularmente elevados. Este ano, o ECOCOOL GLOBAL 1000 foi distinguido pelo seu contributo para o desempenho ambiental, segurança e melhoria da produtividade.

Chama-se SMART LEVEL, é uma das mais recentes inovações de alta tecnologia da FUCHS e já chegou a Portugal, mais precisamente a Alverca.

A aposta na energia solar representa mais um marco no compromisso da FUCHS com um futuro mais sustentável. Este investimento contribui para a redução da pegada de carbono, promove uma maior eficiência energética e reforça o alinhamento da empresa com os objetivos de descarbonização.

É com grande satisfação que anunciamos que desde o dia 1 de janeiro de 2026, a FUCHS passou a integrar o conjunto das empresas setoriais associadas da EPCOL.
Relativamente à adesão à EPCOL, André de Castro Pinheiro refere ainda: “A FUCHS é o maior fabricante independente de lubrificantes a nível mundial e, estando presente diretamente em Portugal, faz todo o sentido sermos um membro ativo da EPCOL, associação de referência na defesa e promoção dos lubrificantes.

FUCHS LUBRICANTES has launched FRICOFIN AV, a new multifunctional cooling fluid with P-OAT technology, free of silicate, borate, nitrite and amines, which offers advanced protection against
corrosion, cavitation and extreme temperatures, and is compatible with light, heavy, hybrid and electric vehicles, as well as meeting various international standards and manufacturers such as Mercedes-Benz, Renault and Nissan.

In April, IMOPLASTIC started the FUCHS CARE service, replacing the old emulsion with a new ECOCOOL CUT BFF, a high-performance cutting fluid. The process, led by the FUCHS technical team, included thorough cleaning of the CNC machines and installation of the new emulsion, guaranteeing greater protection, performance and strict laboratory control. With this initiative, all IMOPLASTIC Group companies now use FUCHS lubricants exclusively, highlighting the quality of service, operational gains and commitment to sustainability.

FUCHS announces the launch of the new TITAN MARINE range of engine oils, specially developed for marine applications.

The new formulations offer numerous advantages for a wide range of applications. The products in the TITAN MARINE range carry approvals from the recognized NMMA (National Marine Manufacturers Association), including the brand new NMMA FC-W (CAT) approval.

They can be used, according to the manufacturer's specifications, in outboard engines, inboard engines, water-cooled or air-cooled engines, two-stroke or four-stroke engines, as well as engines with or without catalytic converters in boats, yachts and/or ships.

The start of the year also marks the reinforcement of the training activities promoted by FUCHS among its partners. In April, SPARKES & SPARKES, a specialist in rebuilding manual gearboxes since 1990, took part in a technical training course promoted by FUCHS. The focus was on dual-clutch gearboxes (DCT), a segment in which the company has recently invested.
The session covered operating principles, common faults and the importance of choosing the right lubricant. FUCHS highlighted its experience with OEM products, such as FFL-2 and FFL-52529 - the only ones approved by the VW group - as well as approvals from ZF, Mercedes-Benz and GETRAG.
These events are part of FUCHS' ongoing training plan, with the aim of providing technical support to its partners throughout the country.

FUCHS' single-point lubrication systems, STAR VARIO and FLEX, are the ideal solution for ensuring precise and continuous lubrication, reducing failures and maximizing the useful life of your equipment. With automatic lubricant application, downtime is minimized, maintenance costs decrease and worker safety increases, eliminating the risk of manual application.

In addition, these systems ensure homogeneous and hygienic lubrication, preventing leaks, spills and product contamination. With different models adaptable to your needs, FUCHS simplifies the maintenance of your equipment, guaranteeing maximum reliability and performance.

Invest in intelligent lubrication and keep your operation moving!

Honoured as FPAK Driver Revelation 2024, Hugo Lopes, 27, had his best season ever last year: He won the Portuguese Junior Rally Championship and the European Rally Trophy Junior and came second in the Portuguese Rally Championship (CPR) 2RM. In 2025, he will make his debut in the CPR 4RM as an official driver for Team Hyundai Portugal. Always by his side, since 2022: FUCHS. In 2025, the workshop brand reinforces its support for AMSPORT's mechanical engineer. The renowned workshop in Viseu uses FUCHS lubricants exclusively, both in competition and in the maintenance of its corporate and private clients' vehicles. "For FUCHS, it's great to have a partnership with a young driver like Hugo, who has been racing since he was 13. He's got drive, talent, focus and he's really committed to giving it his all, in other words, he's going to show that our high-performance oils work perfectly in extreme conditions and that they protect the engine, brakes, gearbox and differentials during competition," explains André Castro Pinheiro, Managing Director of FUCHS Portugal, at the signing of the new contract with Hugo Lopes and his navigator Magda Oliveira on 11 March 2025 in Maia.
