Iran plans to export its home-made nano-based engine oils manufactured by Pishgaman-Nano-Aria Company (PNACO) to Lebanon.

Lebanon has asked to sign a contract to purchase the product, and the request was welcomed by the investors of engine oil distribution company in Iran's Northern Gilan province, Mehr News Agency reported.

According to the managers of PNACO, the contract signed with Gilan Province industrial body to sell 10, 0000 liters of various nano-based engine oils per month in the last year, increased sales of the aforementioned product by 10 percent.

This product has had an average monthly sale of 20,0000 liters since its launch. According to the company's managers, nano-based engine oils outweigh their conventional counterparts in terms of reduction in engine erosion, fuel consumption, engine temperature and acceleration increase of the vehicle.

According to the commercial manager of PNACO, signing a contract with Lebanon on exporting nano-based engine oils to its market is on the company's agenda.

PNACO started manufacturing its products in 2006 aimed at production of appropriate nano-based lubricants for gasoline and diesel engines applications and production of all kinds of nano-based products in the field of petrochemicals and vehicles.
