LAUGFS Lubricants, Sri Lanka’s only home-grown lubricant brand, is now serving the Sri Lankan private bus owners. In response to the current pandemic situation, which has had a significant global impact, LAUGFS Lubricants collaborated with the Transport Ministry and the National Transport Commission to launch a relief program for private bus proprietors in Sri Lanka.
According to the concept put forth by the State Minister of Vehicle Regulation, Bus Transport Services, and Train Compartments, and Motor Car Industry and State Minister of Community Police Services, Dilum Amunugama, this programme will provide much-needed relief to more than 20,000 private bus owners across the island by giving a special fuel allowance with the purchase of selected LAUGFS Lubricants products designed specifically for transportation buses made through the LAUGFS Petroleum Centre network.

We are delighted to be working with the Transport Ministry and the National Transport Commission to launch a relief program to provide much-needed assistance to private bus owners affected by the prevailing pandemic situation. We also appreciate the steps taken and the support offered by the National Transportation Commission in launching this initiative, which we believe will be a great achievement. As a Sri Lankan company, we are constantly striving to improve our community. With the dedication and hard work of our group members, as well as the Transport Ministry and the National Transport Commission, we will be able to provide significant relief to our customers.” commented the Chief Executive Officer of LAUGFS Lubricants Ltd. and Director/Chief Executive Officer of LAUGFS Petroleum Ltd., Dr. Niroshan Jay Pieries.
