Our approach to lubricant supply.
We don't sell oil the way most vendors do. We build a lubricant strategy around your business — then supply it.
You didn't open a business
to become a lubricant expert.
Base oils. Additive packages. Viscosity ratings. If the sales calls you're getting lead with jargon and end with a price, you're being asked to make decisions without the one thing that matters — what it does for your business.
A price, a spec sheet,
and a follow-up call.
The relationship starts and ends with the transaction. When the price moves, so does the vendor — and every renewal is another round of jargon you're expected to sort out yourself.
A partner who builds the
strategy around your goals.
We start with your operation — where you want it to go, what's in the way — and build a lubrication and sourcing strategy that serves it. In plain language, with someone you can call before decisions, for years.
Thirty years of helping
businesses run better.
Before founding EmTech Oil with his son Evan, John Emard spent 30+ years in executive leadership — Chief Revenue Officer, VP of Sales, VP of Operations. His career was built on helping businesses grow, streamline operations, and improve profitability.
That's the lens he brings to lubricants: not another vendor competing on price, but a business partner you call before making decisions about lubricants, equipment, inventory, or sourcing.
It starts with a conversation,
not a catalog.
We talk about your business
Your 3–5 year goals, your challenges, how your operation runs day to day. No product pitch — we're learning what success looks like for you.
You get a strategy
A free lubrication and sourcing strategy tailored to your operation — what to stock, what to consolidate, where the costs are, in plain language.
We stay at the table
If the strategy makes sense, we supply it — and stay the advisor you call as your equipment, inventory, and business change. We're invested for years.
Five things your strategy
is built to do.
Every recommendation we make traces back to one of these. If it doesn't serve your business, it doesn't go in the plan.
Simplify your inventory
Fewer products doing more jobs. Less shelf space, less confusion, less chance of the wrong oil in the wrong machine.
Lower operating costs
Sourcing, container sizes, and delivery cadence chosen to cut your total lubricant spend — not just the unit price.
Improve technician efficiency
Bulk storage and dispensing equipment that gets your techs out of the drum pile and back on billable work.
Increase profitability
Premium products like STARFIRE® where they genuinely improve your margin and your equipment's life — explained, not pushed.
A purchasing strategy you can plan around
Consistent pricing and a trusted local advisor you can call anytime — before decisions, not after problems.
Let's look at
your operation.
Tell us a little about your business and we'll set up a conversation — 30 to 60 minutes, by phone or on-site. You'll leave with a free lubrication and sourcing strategy. No obligation, no pitch.
