GS CALTEX BUSINESS — FINAL CHAPTER 06
9,000 barrels a day, 180+ Kixx products —
the final chapter: making every motion smooth.
Everything that moves needs lubricant. By easing unseen friction and wear, it keeps the world moving smoothly.
ORIGIN
The job is in the name: to make things slippery. A thin oil film between two moving surfaces cuts friction, wear and heat. From the heart of an engine to the machines of a factory — wherever there is motion, it is there.
The base oil from the last chapter makes up over 90% of the finished product; additive science completes it. Using base oil made in-house at the world-no.4 Yeosu refinery — that is the root of Kixx quality.
01 — FRICTION
However smooth it looks, a metal surface is microscopically jagged. Move it as-is and it scratches, heats and wears away — friction and wear, the problem every moving machine carries.
01 — OIL FILM
When lubricant forms an oil film between two surfaces, metal no longer touches metal. Surfaces that scraped now glide on oil — and this thin film decides an engine's life.
01 — SMOOTH
So cars run stronger, ships glide on, and factory machines never rest — 180+ Kixx products, each built on in-house base oil plus additive science, take charge of their own kind of motion.

03 — SINCE 1969
Lubricant production began at the Incheon plant in 1969 and has run for over 50 years. In 2005 it took the name Kixx; today it aims for global No.1 — Lubricating the Future.
A drop of dark crude at the wharf — climbed the column, became a hexagonal ring, was cracked, linked, and clarified — until at last it became the thin oil film inside an engine. A business that began with oil and grew beyond it — the circle closes here.
