SK ZIC is a premium lubricant brand from SK Innovation of South Korea — one of the largest oil refining companies in Asia, ranked in the Fortune Global 500. SK ZIC produces high-quality Full Synthetic lubricants certified by API, ILSAC, ACEA and many leading automakers around the world.
For the Thai market, SK ZIC has a customer base covering everyone from private car owners, repair shops, and service centers to large Fleet companies, all the way to industrial factories that need high-quality differential gear oil, hydraulic oil, and ATF.
Why SK ZIC Is a Popular Choice in Thailand
1. Synthetic Technology from Group III+ Base Oil
SK Innovation invests in Yubase Technology, a Group III Base Oil production process whose quality is close to PAO (Group IV) in terms of Viscosity Index and Pour Point, at a lower cost — making SK ZIC products high-performing at an accessible price.
2. International Standard Certifications
SK ZIC produces oils certified to multiple standards:
- API SP — the highest in the gasoline engine oil group
- ILSAC GF-6A/GF-6B — for modern fuel-efficient engines
- ACEA C2/C3 — for European cars using a Catalytic Converter and DPF
- API GL-4/GL-5 — for differential gear oil and Manual Transmission
3. Genuine Fuel Economy
From independent testing, Full Synthetic oils in grades 0W-20 and 0W-30 help reduce fuel consumption by 2–4% compared to Mineral or Semi-Synthetic oils of the same grade, especially in city driving where temperatures change frequently.

How to Choose the Correct Viscosity Grade
Choose by SAE J300 Viscosity Classification
The SAE system divides engine oil viscosity into 2 parts:
- The number before W (Winter) = viscosity at low temperature; the lower it is, the better the cold-weather start
- The number after W = viscosity at high temperature; the higher it is, the better it withstands heat
For Thailand's climate (hot and humid, average temperature 28–38°C):
| Vehicle / Engine Type | Recommended Grade |
|---|---|
| New Hybrid / Full EV-hybrid cars | 0W-20, 0W-30 |
| General gasoline cars after 2015 | 5W-30, 5W-40 |
| Gasoline cars before 2015 | 10W-40, 10W-30 |
| General Diesel vehicles | 15W-40 |
| Heavy trucks / freight rail | 15W-40, 20W-50 |
| Industrial machinery | Per the manufacturer's manual |
Advantages of Ordering Lubricant by the Case/Drum
For repair shops that change more than 20 liters of oil per day, or factories with a Fleet of vehicles/machinery, ordering in Bulk has clear advantages:
- Lower price per liter — ordering 200 liters (1 drum) saves 20–35% compared to buying bottles at retail
- Less packaging waste — a 200-liter steel drum can be returned, reducing bottle disposal costs
- Confidence in the same Lot — consistent oil formula throughout the entire Drum, preventing problems from mixing different Lots
- Complete documentation — CoA and SDS per Drum, ready for ISO 9001 / ISO 14001 Audit
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How is SK ZIC different from Shell Helix, Mobil 1? SK ZIC uses its own Yubase Group III Base Oil, unlike Shell and Mobil which use PAO Group IV (in some products). SK ZIC has a more competitive price in the mid-to-upper price segment of the Full Synthetic market, while engine protection quality in daily use is very similar.
Q: Can I use SK ZIC X-9000 instead of X-7000 directly? Yes, provided you use the same Viscosity Grade or the one recommended by the carmaker. X-9000 is Full Synthetic and provides better cleanliness and engine protection than X-7000 (Semi-Synthetic), but the price is higher.
Q: Can ZIC HYDRO 46 oil be used in a forklift's hydraulics? Yes, ZIC HYDRO 46 meets the DIN 51524-2 HLP standard and is suitable for hydraulic systems in forklifts, construction vehicles, and general industrial machinery. Check the forklift manufacturer's manual for the specified ISO VG.
Q: How do I buy from a distributor and get genuine product? A legitimate distributor will have a letter of appointment from SK Innovation or an official agent. Genuine products have a QR Code or Hologram on the packaging that can be scanned to verify. Do not buy from unclear sources, as counterfeit oil can quickly damage your engine.
Ordering for Fleets and Factories
Ordering Steps for Corporate Customers
- Specify the product list — model name, Viscosity Grade, and quantity required
- Receive a quotation — with unit price and delivery cost, within 24 hours
- Issue a PO and receive goods — delivered with a tax invoice and CoA
Stock Planning for Factories
For factories that use engine oil, gear oil, or hydraulic oil regularly, we recommend keeping a minimum 2-month stock to prevent shortages and to negotiate prices better than ordering small quantities each time.
