Overview

Calpam Mineralöl-Gesellschaft mbH is a German regional company in the mineral oil and lubricants sector, headquartered at Schillerstraße 98 in Aschaffenburg. It was founded on 13 July 1961 as "Deutsche PAM Mineralöl-Gesellschaft mbH" and was fully acquired in 1989 by the Bolloré Group, with the participation of the holding company CIPCH (Calpam International Petroleum Company Holding BV, Rotterdam/NL). On 1 December 1994 the company was renamed "Calpam Mineralöl-Gesellschaft mbH". The origins of the Calpam brand name lie in an earlier joint venture between Chevron and the Dutch PAM. The historical Deutsche PAM Mineralölgesellschaft, a subsidiary of the Dutch SHV group based in Düsseldorf, supplied customers in regional and direct sales with fuels, heating oil and lubricants, and moved its registered office for strategic reasons to Aschaffenburg, the site of its largest tank farm. Through its parent company Bolloré Energie, Calpam belongs to the second-largest independent distributor of mineral oil products in Europe, with a product range covering heating oil, fuels and lubricants. Bunkering of ships is handled by the subsidiary Deutsche Calpam in Hamburg. Customers include households, agriculture, transport companies, industry, skilled trades, and the heating oil and fuel trade. Calpam operates a tank farm for heating oil and diesel fuel in Kleinostheim with a capacity of 11,000 m³. Sales of the products held are handled through five legally dependent branches in Arnsberg, Korbach, Herdorf, Greiz and Kleinostheim, as well as around 60 filling stations located in North Rhine-Westphalia, Lower Saxony, Hesse and Bavaria. On 1 January 2019 the heating oil and diesel business at the Neu-Ulm, Augsburg and Albstadt locations was sold to SCHARR WÄRME GmbH & Co. KG, Stuttgart. The company's official website presents Calpam as a regional mobility partner with more than 60 years of experience, offering services ranging from advice to the Calpam Multi-Card for vehicle fleets, along with financing concepts and further services. The site lists filling stations, a station search, the Calpam Multi-Card, fuel data sheets, certification, careers and news. Calpam holds interests in UNITI-Kraftstoffe Gesellschaft mbH, Berlin, and Gebindeverwertungsgesellschaft der Mineralölwirtschaft mbH (GVÖ), Hamburg, and is a member of industry associations including the RAL Gütegemeinschaft Energiehandel, the Verband für Energiehandel in Mannheim, the Gesamtverband des deutschen Brennstoff- und Mineralölhandels in Essen, and UNITI – Bundesverband mittelständischer Mineralölunternehmen e. V. in Berlin.

History

The Calpam Mineralöl-Gesellschaft mbH was founded on 13 July 1961 under the name "Deutsche PAM Mineralöl-Gesellschaft mbH". The historical Deutsche PAM Mineralölgesellschaft, a subsidiary of the Dutch SHV group based in Düsseldorf, supplied customers in regional and direct sales with fuels, heating oil and lubricants, and moved its registered office for strategic reasons to Aschaffenburg, the site of its largest tank farm. The origins of the Calpam brand name lie in an earlier joint venture between Chevron and the Dutch PAM. In 1989 the company was fully acquired by the Bolloré Group, with the participation of the holding company CIPCH (Calpam International Petroleum Company Holding BV, Rotterdam/NL), and became a subsidiary of the energy division of the Bolloré Group in Paris. A trademark agreement with the former owners led in 1994 to the present name: on 1 December 1994 the company was renamed "Calpam Mineralöl-Gesellschaft mbH". Through its parent company Bolloré Energie, Calpam belongs to the second-largest independent distributor of mineral oil products in Europe, with a product range covering heating oil, fuels and lubricants.
