70 years of history: an enduring legend. To mark the 70th anniversary of RUSTOL-OWATROL®, Thibault Durieu, Chairman and CEO of the Durieu Group, looks back on the history of a solution that has become a benchmark over seven decades.
For 70 years, RUSTOL-OWATROL® has protected metal thanks to a unique principle of action: it penetrates to the heart of the microcavities of the substrate, expels air and moisture, isolates the metal in depth and stops the progression of rust.
Over generations, this solution has been passed down from enthusiast to enthusiast. It has found its place in the workshops of restorers, collectors, car enthusiasts, boating enthusiasts, heritage enthusiasts and more.
Today, RUSTOL-OWATROL® is used in many countries around the world and has contributed to the protection of iconic monuments, such as the flame of the Statue of Liberty in New York or the dome of Les Invalides in Paris.
After 70 years of innovation, one conviction remains: to continue developing ever more effective solutions to sustainably protect metal and preserve what is dear to you.
The Durieu group thanks all those who have kept this beautiful story alive for 70 years.
