A Message From The Owner – Pierre Orgle
At Friction Antidote Transnational we have a purpose – “we change lives for people through creating opportunities to reach their potential“. We’re world leaders at what we do – and we do it every day.
A global company working across all continents. From the way we do business to the way we live our values and value our people, Friction Antidote is exceptional. Our strategy remains consistent, organic growth by region and discipline, a focus on growth markets, development of home-grown management expertise and a structure that champions our own expertise.

Organic Growth By Region And Discipline
Even during difficult economic times, our strategy remains establishing growth and disciplines throughout our international network, and extending this network into new territories.
A Focus On Growth Markets
Our objective is to expand into less developed markets where, as a result, competition is limited. Many of our new regions are emerging economies and are growing quicker than established markets. Naturally, our ability to grow fastest lies where markets have the potential to develop, and competition is weakest.
Home-Grown Management Expertise
In order to grow, we have the platform to support it. Our internal expertise forms part of the foundations – each new office, region or discipline is led by existing Friction Antidote management, equipped with the skills and experience to maintain our market-leading position.
A Structure That Champions Profit Share And Promotion From Within
The aim of our team-based structure and profit share business model is to retain our management expertise within Friction Antidote. Our strategy is geared for the long-term. With world-renowned machinery brands, highly trained and motivated consultants, established professional relationships and access to the best candidates through our established database and market-leading approach to social media and online channels, the future has never looked better.
Our Core Values
Our core values are the cornerstone of who we are, what we stand for and what we do. Our values are reflected in everything we do, every day, all over the world. They’re an integral part of our business and help set us apart from our competitors. They form a platform for our methods, approach to business and motivation of our people. More than just words, we believe our values are the essence of our brand and influence the way we work day in, day out.

Innovative tribological solutions are our passion. We’re proud to offer unmatched friction reduction for a better environment and a quick return on your investment. Through personal contact and consultation, we offer reliable service, support and help our clients to be successful in all industries and markets.
Profitability:
Switching over to a high-performance lubricant pays off although purchasing costs may seem higher at first, less maintenance and longer vehicles/machinery parts lifecycle may already mean less strain on your budget in the short to medium term.
Continuous production processes and predictable maintenance intervals reduce production losses to a minimum. Consistently high lubricant quality ensures continuous, maintenance-free long-term lubrication for high plant availability. Continuous supply of fresh GG Friction Antidote optimized lubricant to the lubrication points keeps friction low and reduces energy costs.
Safety:
Longer lubrication intervals reduce the frequency of maintenance work and the need for your staff to work in danger zones. Lubrication systems can therefore considerably reduce occupational safety risks in work areas that are difficult to access.
Reliability:
GG Friction Antidote optimized lubricants ensure reliable, clean and precise lubrication around the clock. Plant availability is ensured by continuous friction reduction of the application. Lubrication with GG Friction Antidote optimized lubricants help to prevent significant rolling bearing failures.
Need a good ROI? How about 3,900%?
It may sound too outrageous to be true, but the Institute of Mechanical Engineers estimates every $1,000 spent on proper lubrication yields $40,000 in savings.
