111 years of the Oest Group – a success story from the Black Forest

Since 1915, the name Oest has stood for quality and innovation. What Johann Georg Oest founded in the Black Forest as a factory for technical oils and greases is now an internationally successful group of companies. From co-founding the German AVIA in 1952 to state-of-the-art technologies in the fields of lubricants, energy, and mechanical engineering, the Oest Group combines tradition with vision. In 2026, we will celebrate this milestone together with our employees, customers, and business partners. A special highlight will be the anniversary concert of the Baden-Württemberg State Police Orchestra as part of the Black Forest Music Festival at the Kurhaus Freudenstadt.

E-Fuels - the solution for the traffic of tomorrow

E-fuels are fuels with the same properties as gasoline, diesel or kerosene and can also be used for the current vehicle fleet.

They are the alternative to conventional liquid fuels and are therefore ideally suited to decisively and affordably reducing CO₂ emissions in the transport and heating market.
