History

Combined strengths in corrosion inhibition technology and manufacturing

Arteco has a long tradition and expertise in the coolants industry through its parent companies.

Arteco is a joint venture company of Chevron and TotalEnergies created in 1998. Both parent companies have combined their strengths in corrosion inhibition technology and manufacturing and declared their long-term commitment to this business.

In 2009, Arteco's geographical scope grew beyond Europe to include Asia-Pacific, the Middle East and Africa, and currently has offices in Belgium, China, India and Japan. 

Arteco develops, produces and markets engine coolants, heat transfer fluids and corrosion inhibitors for a wide range of industries. 

In December 2016, Arteco became a "stand-alone" organisation. In its new structure, Arteco remains 50/50 JV between Chevron and TotalEnergies, offering the opportunity to streamline business processes, provide renewed flexibility and an intensified technology focus to address market evolutions. 

Since its creation, Arteco has experienced continuous growth; more than 60 million vehicles can be filled with Arteco's annual volume.
