Nyco, formed in 1929 is a global leader in the development and manufacture of lubricants. With its HQ in France, Nyco is the only European producer of aviation lubricants and high performance ester fluids. Nyco’s product ranges include oils and greases for every aerospace application. Nyco’s worldwide network covers over 100 countries and Nyco has now expanded its network with the appointment of Pexa as a distributor.

Pexa, based in Halifax UK, is the leading distributor of surface finishing materials to the aerospace industry and is expanding its product range to include lubricants. Pexa is a fellow member with Nyco of the Aerochemicals Alliance (www.aerochemicals.com), therefore a partnership with Nyco was the obvious choice for Pexa’s manufacturing partner in the lubricant market.

Jim Rowbotham, Managing Director of Pexa said, “when we add a new product group to our range we always look for a global technology leader and a partner that can offer real differentiation combined with excellent service. Nyco fits the bill perfectly as they have excellent technologies and a huge range of approvals that our customers will appreciate. We look forward to discussing Nyco technologies with our aerospace customers and allowing them to benefit from our already excellent delivery and technical support services. We intend to keep a tailor made stock on hand at all times to service customers with rapid lead times and small quantities should they need them”.

For Nyco, Arnaud Radigue, Defence & Turbine Business Director, added, “Nyco wants to have the most comprehensive distribution network in the aerospace and defence industry. Adding Pexa as a distributor strengthens the network, adding a distributor with an excellent reputation for technical support and service. As fellow members of the Aerochemicals Alliance we have the opportunity to maintain excellent relations with Pexa and we look forward to working together for many years to come”.
