About the Witham Group

The Witham Group is one of the largest independent lubricant manufacturers and paint suppliers in the UK. It is a privately owned, family run business with its head office and lubricant manufacturing site based in Lincoln and a distribution warehouse, trade shop and paint decorating centre based in Soham, Cambridgeshire.

Today we are proud to be preferred suppliers of award-winning oils, paints, greases and other essential products to a huge array of businesses throughout the UK and abroad. Using only the highest quality raw materials, we meet both the latest original equipment manufacturer (OEM) requirements and worldwide industry specifications for all standards.

Witham Group manufacturers around 5,000,000 litres of lubricants and paint per year, and a litre of our products are sold somewhere within the UK every 6 seconds.

We are very proud of our heritage and over the past 100+ years we have grown a strong reputation built on quality products, looking after our people, our customers and leading the lubricant industry with our environmental credentials.

We operate throughout the UK and abroad, supplying our products and services to a full range of industries including agriculture, road haulage, marine and off-highway plant industries, plus we also supply many other sectors such as manufacturing, heavy engineering, motorsport, green energy, country estates and horticultural businesses.

Over the past 15 years or so, Witham Group has grown faster than its previous 88-year history. The business has diversified into new innovative products and sectors and worked hard to put the environment at the heart of what we do. This means not only offering the best performing environmental products and services, but our unique carbon neutral method of manufacturing lubricants is slashing our energy use and the time, and it costs and takes to blend our raw materials, using solar panels and a 20amp plug instead of fossil fuel driven energy. We are committed to reducing our waste, using high percentage recycled packaging, helping with oil storage solutions, and providing a growing range of award winning environmentally sensitive products. It also means, that the welfare of those affected by our activities, have all been improved and are constantly monitored. We remain committed and focused on our customers old and new.

We now employ around 50 employees across the two sites in Lincoln and Soham and have a customer focused sales team throughout the Midlands, Yorkshire, and East of England. Our team is our most valuable asset and key to our success. We are immensely proud with the incredible longevity of service we hold across the Group and believe that it is our people, at all levels throughout the company, who make the difference between average and exceptional performance.
