Kernow Oils Appointed as Castrol’s exclusive Official CV Partner & Authorised Distributor
Kernow Oils is proud to announce its appointment as the exclusive
UK Partner Distributor for Castrol’s Commercial Vehicle lubricant portfolio,
marking a significant milestone in the company’s long-standing partnership with
one of the world’s most respected lubricant brands. This prestigious
designation strengthens Kernow Oils’ position at the forefront of the
commercial vehicle and heavy-duty lubrication sector, enhancing its ability to
support operators nationwide with advanced product access, technical insight,
and competitive supply advantages.
For decades, Kernow Oils has collaborated closely with
Castrol as a trusted Industrial Authorised Distributor. This new appointment
expands that relationship into the commercial vehicle arena, formalising the
company’s role in delivering not only premium oils but also best-in-class
technical support. As part of the Ambassador programme, Kernow Oils’
engineering and advisory teams receive ongoing training directly from Castrol’s
global experts, ensuring customers benefit from the latest developments in
lubricant technology, application knowledge, and industry trends.
The enhanced partnership brings three major benefits
to UK operators. First, Kernow Oils will hold exclusive access to selected
Castrol commercial vehicle products, enabling fleets and heavy-duty
equipment operators to adopt next-generation lubricants ahead of the wider
market. Second, through direct collaboration with Castrol’s technical and
R&D teams, Kernow Oils can offer unmatched engineering insight to
help customers optimise maintenance intervals, improve equipment efficiency,
and reduce operating costs. Third, customers will benefit from stronger
pricing advantages, as savings associated with the Ambassador agreement are
passed directly to the market.
Kernow Oils’ extended product offering spans a comprehensive range of commercial vehicle applications, including HGVs, construction plant, tracked machinery, cranes, buses, excavators, and off-road equipment. With tightening emissions legislation, rising fuel-efficiency demands, and increased expectations for extended drain intervals, the importance of selecting the right lubricant has never been greater. Castrol’s advanced formulations—delivered with Kernow Oils’ technical expertise—provide proven engine cleanliness, enhanced component protection, optimised cold-start performance and long-term reliability under demanding conditions.
Reflecting on the appointment, Mark Adkins, Managing
Director of Kernow Oils Ltd, commented:
“Becoming Castrol’s exclusive UK Authorised Distributor for Commercial
Vehicle products is a tremendous honour and a proud moment for our business.
This partnership recognises the technical expertise and customer-first approach
our team brings to the market every day. Most importantly, it allows us to
provide our customers with unparalleled access to world-leading lubricant
technology, backed by the insight and support needed to keep their operations
running at peak performance.”
Marc Perkins, Castrol Sales Director said:
“Castrol and Kernow have had a long standing relationship
in the Industrial sector for many years, so I am very pleased that we can
expand this into the Commercial Vehicle (CV) sector. The CV sector is key to
our continued growth plans in the UK and by combining our recently launched NEW
product range and Kernow’s fantastic technical expertise and supply chain
service, I know that we can offer CV customers industry leading products and
fantastic customer service and delivery.”
With nationwide delivery, dedicated account management, and
free technical surveys and oil analysis, Kernow Oils continues to deliver a
complete service package tailored to the needs of transport, construction,
agriculture, waste management and industrial operators across the UK.
Kernow Oils’ appointment reflects a shared commitment to
innovation, technical excellence and customer success. The company invites
businesses to get in touch for personalised support, technical guidance, or a
competitive quotation.
