[1] [2]
History
The company was founded in 1991 in Kharkiv, Ukraine. The name Xado was shortened from the Russian Kharkovskiy Dom ("Kharkiv house"). In 1998, the directors of the company patented the development of a revitalizant product, a metal treatment which has the ability to repair, restore and protect the mechanism against wear. The first consumer-packaged product was introduced in December 1999. In 2004 in the Netherlands, together with European manufacturer of oils Eurol, Xado established Xado Lube B.V., specializing in manufacturing oil with atomic revitalizant XADO Atomic Oil. [3] In addition to the Netherlands, Xado has headquarters in Germany; Xado products are produced under Xado Germany and Xado Lube B.V. Netherlands licenses.

The specialists assess Xado as the major player in the Ukrainian market of imported and domestic antifriction materials as well, actively occupying almost all major regions of the post-Soviet countries.
