Central Africa
The Democratic Republic of Congo holds some of the world's most extraordinary mineral wealth—cobalt, copper, coltan, gold, and diamonds—making it the most resource-rich country on the continent. As mining activity intensifies to meet global battery and electrification demand, the DRC represents one of Africa's largest industrial lubricant markets.
Global demand for cobalt and copper—driven by electric vehicle batteries and renewable energy infrastructure—is driving unprecedented investment in DRC mining. This creates substantial, sustained demand for specialty mining lubricants and construction equipment fluids.
Afrilube supplies lubricants through Kinshasa, Lubumbashi, Kolwezi, and Goma, with a primary focus on Katanga Province mining operations.
Specialist lubricants for every sector of DR Congo's economy
The DRC produces over 70% of the world's cobalt and is a major copper producer. Glencore, Ivanhoe, and MMG operate some of the world's largest copper-cobalt mines in the Lualaba and Haut-Katanga provinces.
