QLS Sulfonates Rebrands to Expand and Strengthen its Footprint in the North American Lubricant Supply Chain
GUADALAJARA, Mexico — QLS Sulfonates, a leading manufacturer of high-purity sulfonic acid and metallic sulfonates since 1984, is pleased to announce its official rebranding from Química Liposoluble. This change reflects the company’s growth into a specialized, high-capacity provider of essential additives for the global lubricant, grease, and metalworking industries.
“The rebrand marks a pivotal evolution in our delivery capabilities, facilitating greater access to our high-performance calcium, barium, and sodium sulfonates. These multi-functional additives continue to set the standard for excellence across the spectrum of lubricant and metalworking technologies. Our new identity underscores our ability to deliver high-purity sulfonates at scale while highlighting our role as a strategic technical partner.”
said Carlos Garza, President of QLS Sulfonates.
As global supply chains remain volatile, the company’s production base in Jalisco provides North American manufacturers with a secure and efficient nearshoring solution. QLS Sulfonates’ vertically integrated manufacturing process ensures full production control, resulting in consistent chemical activity and tight batch-to-batch specifications. This precision minimizes variability in finished formulations, enabling more efficient and predictable production cycles. Furthermore, the company offers NSF HX-1 certified sulfonates to meet the regulatory requirements of the food-grade lubricant market.
The new QLS Sulfonates identity takes effect immediately, with a full implementation across all corporate communications scheduled throughout 2026.
