Founded as a family-owned business, 4U Cleaner/Degreaser (4U) was created in 1975 for the industrial and aerospace industries. 4U filled a gap in the market for an all-purpose cleaner that is safe for the environment, non-toxic and biodegradable. Independent laboratories and third party testing facilities have validated the safety and efficacy claims made by 4U. Over 45 years, our product sales have expanded with distribution across North America and additional market segments that include Marine, Automotive and RV. Environmentally safe, this water based cleaner consists of non-corrosive and rust inhibiting compounds making it safe and effective to cut through the toughest grease and grime.
In 2019, Metalube Corporation was acquired by the family-owned business Perryman Company. Metalube Corporation was renamed Metalube & Coating Services LLC, with the operations of 4U Products remaining in Corona, CA. The Perryman brand name is synonymous with our commitment to Quality and it is the mission of Metalube & Coating Services LLC to put quality first in every product we manufacture. 4U continues to set an example as one of the first environmentally friendly cleaners that delivers results.
Metalube was established for the purpose of being a supplier of lubricants and cleaners to the aerospace and metalworking industries.
Quality first is the operating philosophy of our company. Each employee is expected to maintain the highest standard of conduct and to adhere to established quality standards. Metalube believes that safety and cleanliness go hand in hand with quality and strives to maintain a safe and clean workplace to achieve our quality first goal.
