Duckhams Oils Awarded SIRIM Certification in Recognition of Product Quality
Duckhams Oils have been awarded SIRIM Product Certification, confirming that Duckhams Lubricants meet strict safety, quality and regulatory standards. A SIRIM delegation led by Senior General Manager of SIRIM Marketing and Customer Experience, Mr Aminudin Bin Abd Aziz, presented the certificate to Johor Darul Ta’zim FC Chief Executive Officer and Technical Director Alistair Edwards.
The SIRIM certification was introduced in response to growing concerns over the increasing number of counterfeit engine oils in domestic and international markets. To address the issue and protect consumers, Malaysian authorities implemented the Trade Descriptions (Certification and Marking of Engine Oil for Motor Vehicle) Order 2024 (“Order”) in 2024, which took effect in April 2025. Applicants involved in the manufacturing, importing, exhibiting, selling, and advertising of engine oils in Malaysia must ensure compliance with the Order and provide information on testing, certification, marking, and labelling requirements.
Duckhams unveiled its co-branded two-wheeler oils, proudly developed in collaboration with JDT Lubricants in Malaysia, earlier this year. Engineered with Duckhams’ 125+ years of expertise and the championship-winning spirit of Malaysia’s prestigious motorcycle racing team JDT Racing, JDT Lubricants are built for those who seek passion and performance.
Formulated with cutting-edge technology and advanced additives, these premium engine oils deliver exceptional efficiency and long-lasting engine protection, even under the toughest conditions. Distributed by DB Petroleum Sdn Bhd, a complete range of motorcycle lubricants is available, from mineral to semi synthetic and fully synthetic products. The products will now carry the SIRIM Conformity Label on packaging.
Mike Bewsey, Duckhams CEO, commented, “This prestigious certification from SIRIM QAS International is more than just a badge - it's a guarantee. It confirms our unwavering commitment to authenticity, quality, and consumer protection in the engine oil industry in our global markets.
We thank SIRIM QAS International for supporting our dedication to raising the bar. Duckhams has been powering engines for over 125 years, and we retain the same commitment to excellence that our founder, Alexander Duckham, pioneered in 1899. We are proud to sell SIRIM-certified products and to play our part in helping protect consumers from counterfeit engine oils.”
