A LEGACY OF INNOVATION

Since its founding in 1954, Bardahl has been guided by three core values:

  • Kindness - building long-term relationships with partners and employees
  • Sustainability - developing solutions that support durability and responsible use
  • Competition - continuously improving performance through innovation

These values shape Bardahl's research, development and manufacturing processes, with a focus on reliability, durability and efficiency.

Bardahl technologies are developed and tested under real-world operating conditions to ensure consistent performance across automotive, industrial and motorsport applications

With production and distribution across multiple international markets, Bardahl is recognised as a global specialist in advanced lubrication solutions.

PROPRIETARY TECHNOLOGIES THAT DEFINE BARDAHL

POLAR PLUS TECHNOLOGY

Polar Plus Technology uses polar molecules that adhere to metal surfaces, forming a durable protective layer that helps reduce friction, wear and corrosion.

By maintaining lubrication even during cold starts or high-load conditions, Polar Plus supports long-term engine protection and efficiency.

FULLERENE C60 TECHNOLOGY

Bardahl integrates Fullerene C60 molecules into selected formulations. These spherical carbon structures help reduce metal-to-metal contact, supporting smoother mechanical operation, reduced friction and enhanced component longevity. The technology is based on recognised scientific research into fullerene structures.

100% BIOTECH INNOVATION

Bardahl PLASMA Technology represents an advanced approach to engine treatment formulation.

  • 100% BIOTECH
  • Formulated without any petrol component
  • Based on plant-derived (vegetal-origin) ester molecules

Using a plasma-induction concept, the technology is designed to reinforce the oil film and improve molecular adhesion to metal surfaces. This supports:

  • Reduced internal friction
  • Improved mechanical efficiency
  • Enhanced engine protection under demanding conditions

PLASMA TECHNOLOGY IS POSITIONED TO HELP SUPPORT EFFICIENT ENGINE OPERATION WITHOUT COMPROMISING PERFORMANCE.

TECHNOLOGY TESTED BEYOND THE LABORATORY

Bardahl technologies are developed with real-world operating conditions in mind, including high-load and performance environments. Bardahl has a long-standing motorsport heritage, with involvement across demanding competitive disciplines that help inform product development and validation.

This experience contributes to the robustness and reliability of Bardahl formulations used in everyday vehicles.

SUPPORTING MODERN AND CLASSIC ENGINES

Bardahl has also played a key role in the development of lead substitute technologies, offering solutions for engines originally designed for leaded fuel.

These formulations are designed to:

  • Protect valve seats
  • Support efficient combustion
  • Help preserve classic engines while operating with unleaded fuels

This allows older vehicles to continue operating reliably while adapting to modern fuel requirements.
