.............................. Castrol
Logo and Trademark..............................
Castrol is a brand of industrial and automotive lubricants which is applied to a large range of oil products for most lubrication applications. The brand is part of the BP Group of companies, but has retained its separate identity. In February 1899, Charles Cheers Wakefield took what was perhaps the greatest risk of his working life: he resigned from the Vacuum Oil Company over a disagreement with the management regarding Vacuum Oil's foray into the railroad lubricants sector, and set himself up as competition. He could not have guessed that the firm he left behind would go on to become Mobil Oil.
Wakefield rented three small rooms on the third floor of 27 Cannon Street in the heart of London, and it was there, on Thursday the 9th of March 1899, that the firm of C.C.Wakefield & Co opened its doors for the first time. Little did he know then, that his fledgling company – the nine-man, three-room C.C.Wakefield & Co – would grow into one of the largest, most innovative and highly respected lubricants businesses in the world – CASTROL..
In 1909, the company began production of a new automotive lubricant named "Castrol" (a contraction of castor oil, from which it was made). The company developed specific oil applications for various applications of the new internal combustion engine, including automobiles, motorcycles, and aircraft.
In 1966, Castrol was acquired by British oil company Burmah, which was renamed Burmah-Castrol. In 2000, Burmah-Castrol was acquired by the then BP Amoco plc (now renamed BP plc). Castrol branded lubricants continue to be sold around the world and are, in many countries, market leaders.
