    "Revol Limited is an independent manufacturer of speciality industrial lubricants producing a wide range of products primarily comprising of greases, colloidal dispersions and oils. Many of the products are formulated to contain solid lubricants such as molybdenum disulphide, graphite, PTFE, metallic oxides and soft non-ferrous metals. All of the company’s products are manufactured in house from where they are distributed, sold and used worldwide. Revol Limited was established in 1926 in Newcastle upon Tyne by James Arnott & Co, a local lubricant producer that had been making Arnoco Oils on Newcastle Quayside for over a hundred years. The location of Arnott’s works is now the site of the Newcastle Law Courts. Revol was set up as an in-house specialities company and the speciality ethos still applies. The Revol name was taken from an abbreviation of the words “Revolve” or “Revolution” denoting the fact that the company’s products were employed on equipment such as gears and belts that rotated and also that the products in the 1920’s were ground-breaking or “Revolutionary”. The well known Voler brand name was chosen as an anagram of Revol. Following a period of mergers and acquisitions in the late 1950’s and early 1960’s Arnott & Co had become part of the Burmah Castrol Group. After a management buyout from Castrol in 1967 Revol Limited became an independent private business and remains so today. It is 100% owned by the Wilkes family and still based in based in Newcastle upon Tyne."
