TotalEnergies knitting machine oil now co-branded with Mayer & Cie.

TotalEnergies Lubrifiants has signed a strategic partnership with Mayer & Cie., a leading manufacturer of circular knitting machines, to launch the co-branded Tixo Stainless range of high-performance knitting machine lubricants. The agreement will enable Mayer & Cie.’s global distribution network to supply these premium oils to customers worldwide.

TotalEnergies is a global leader in industrial lubricants, with its Tixo Stainless range specifically developed to optimise the lubrication of knitting machine components such as needles, needle beds, sinkers, and knitting cams. These oils ensure superior washability across all temperature ranges, while maintaining machine reliability and fabric quality.

Mayer & Cie., a German-based circular knitting machine manufacturer founded in 1905, is known for its cutting-edge textile solutions. The company’s Managing Partner, Benjamin Mayer, welcomed the collaboration.

“We are excited to offer our circular knitting machine customers a premium-quality machine and needle oil, adding yet another element to ensure exceptional performance.”

A shared commitment to innovation

This partnership reflects the shared values of innovation and excellence upheld by both companies. 

“It is an honor to welcome Mayer & Cie. as one of our key partners. Combining their circular knitting machines with our lubricants was an obvious choice for me, and I am delighted to collaborate together to fully satisfy their customers,” said Rainer Keiemburg, vice president for Industrial Lubricants at TotalEnergies Lubrifiants.

The co-branded Tixo Stainless lubricants will now be distributed globally by Mayer & Cie.’s expert sales partners, providing the textile industry with high-quality lubrication solutions that enhance efficiency and sustainability.
