MENLO PARK, CA -- Green Earth Technologies (GET) has received notice from an independent third-party testing facility that G-Oil, the company’s brand of environmentally-friendly motor oil, thus far meets the relevant standards and is comparable in quality to those of commercially available synthetic and crude oil-based motor oil.

Mathew Zuckerman, CEO and president of GET, said, “It is well established that consumers are craving green products, but most consumers refuse to sacrifice performance in the process. The results of these tests and future tests will be helpful in demonstrating to retailers, as well as consumers, that G-OIL has qualities and performance capabilities at least as good as the comparable petroleum-based products.”

G-OIL is a “green” biodegradable motor oil made from beef tallow that reduces environmental hazards and dependence on foreign crude oil common to petroleum-based products.

Thus far the independent third party testing shows that G-Oil has successfully completed Fiterability, Ball Bearing Rust, Sulfur, Calcium, Zinc and Phosphorus tests and the 10W-30 G-OIL’s results are shown to be compared to published data for synthetic and crude oil-based motor oils. The company said the testing facility used to qualify the product meets the rigorous testing procedures and guidelines established by the American Society for Testing and Materials.
