FORT WAYNE, IN—DR Lubricants has acquired Biolube, located here, from the founders of Biolube, George Barker and Bob Pennycoff, both of whom have retired. 

Kelly Johnson and Erik Bailey and their team at DR Lubricants, the manufacturers of Biolube Lubie (c) products since the beginning, will take over operations of Biolube. Therefore, buyers will not notice any difference in product quality. The products will retain the same formulas and Biolube names. Biolube has provided innovation in saw lubrication and has been a leader in this field for more than 20 years. 

DR Lubricants, Inc. was founded in 1986 and is growing to become one of the largest manufacturers of quality machine lubricants and coolants in the Midwest. The company offers custom blends for private label production. Their dedication and commitment to continual improvements through R&D help ensure the best protection for today’s manufacturing and high-production demands.
