How the value range is made

Established local blendersBlended by established local blenders. We check each grade against its data sheet before we quote, and you get the same data sheet with your quote.
Specification on the data sheetOur blending partners work to recognised industry specifications such as API and SAE grades, but these vary by grade and blender, so we don’t make a blanket claim. The data sheet supplied with every quote shows the exact spec for your grade.
Data sheet supplied with every quoteAsk about batch testing and traceability for the grade you need. Our blending partners can provide the product data sheet, and we send it with every quote.
Bespoke blendsRun a grade nobody lists? Ask us. Our blending partners can often make a blend to your required specification, depending on volume and lead time.
Data sheet with every quoteWe don’t publish spec claims for each grade. You get the product data sheet with your quote, so you can check it against your equipment manual before you buy.

Value range FAQ

Is this as good as Caltex?

Not in every respect, and we’d rather tell you straight. Caltex Delo, Havoline and Rando are a major brand’s formulations, and their data sheets list OEM approvals. Value-range oils are locally blended to keep the price down, and the specification for each grade is on the data sheet supplied with every quote. For many older, out-of-warranty or lower-duty machines that’s a sensible saving. If your equipment is under warranty or the manual calls for a specific OEM approval, choose Caltex or another oil that carries that approval. Tell us the machine and we’ll say which fits.

Who blends the value range?

Established local blenders. We don’t name our blending partners. What matters for your machine is the product data sheet, and we send it with every quote.

Which specifications do the oils meet?

It depends on the grade and batch, so we don’t list specs here. Grades on request — we supply the data sheet with the quote. Check it against your equipment manual before you order.

What pack sizes can I get?

20 L and 210 L drums only. For 5 L packs or 1000 L IBCs, ask about our Caltex range.

Can I collect the same day?

No. Value-range products are sourced to order — we confirm lead time, then you collect or we arrange delivery. Same-day counter collection at our Benoni yard is for Caltex only.

Do you show prices online?

No. AVDMM is quote-only. Send the grade, pack, quantity and suburb, and we come back with price, lead time and the data sheet.

Can you blend to my specification?

Often, yes. Our blending partners can make bespoke blends to your required spec, depending on volume. Send the spec sheet and your expected volume, and we confirm the lead time and quote.

Where do you deliver?

Collection from our Benoni yard (Mon–Fri 06:30–17:30, once your order is in), or delivery across the East Rand and Gauteng. Ask us about your distance. Route, timing and minimum order are confirmed on the quote.

AVDMM is an authorised Caltex distributor. Value-range products are locally blended and supplied through trade channels.
