For over 55 years, Pennzoil has been Malaysia's trusted name in engine protection. From the first drop to the last kilometre — we're in every engine that matters.
UMW Pennzoil Distributors Sdn. Bhd. is the sole and exclusive distributor of Pennzoil motor oils and lubricants in Malaysia — a position we have held with pride since 1990.

Today, as part of the Sime UMW, we continue to deliver world-class engine protection to Malaysian drivers across passenger cars, motorcycles, commercial vehicles and industrial machinery — through a comprehensive nationwide network of authorised dealers and service centres.
