“Dream about something! Go ahead!”

“I dreamed about being successful with this synthetic oil.” Al Amatuzio – Founder and CEO, AMSOIL INC.

Many people think America’s best days for innovation and manufacturing are behind us. That companies are increasing margins instead of increasing quality. Al Amatuzio, the founder of AMSOIL INC., thinks otherwise. For over 40 years, AMSOIL has been formulating, blending, packaging, and serving as a leader in the synthetic lubrication industry. American innovation is indeed alive and well. Watch this video to learn more about Al Amatuzio’ s persistence in building an American company based on American values.

History

40 years in the making

historyBottlesAMSOIL President and CEO Al Amatuzio founded his company on the same principles that defined his career as a jet fighter squadron commander – excellence, integrity and strong leadership. In 1972, the breakthrough came. AMSOIL 10W-40 Synthetic Motor Oil, the result of years of research and inspired by aerospace technology, became the first synthetic motor oil in the world to meet American Petroleum Institute service requirements. It outperformed conventional oils on all counts, signaling a new age in lubrication science. Today, virtually every other motor oil manufacturer has recognized the superiority of synthetic lubricants and followed the AMSOIL lead with introductions of synthetic motor oils of their own. Accept no substitutes – AMSOIL is The First in Synthetics®.

Hall of Fame

In 1994 Al Amatuzio was honored as the pioneer of synthetic lubrication with his induction into the Lubricants World Hall of Fame.

Our Philosophy

Quality

Holding ourselves to higher quality standards is our industry trademark. We select raw materials based on quality and performance, not price. Each chemical is tested to ensure it meets our quality standards before it is accepted into our manufacturing facility. Our manufacturing process uses a strictly controlled computerized process to maintain top-quality finished products.

Samples of the finished product are subjected to a series of industry-standard tests prior to packaging. Every product AMSOIL manufactures is tested every time it is blended to ensure maximum quality and consistency, ensuring AMSOIL customers receive the same high performance every time they purchase AMSOIL synthetic lubricants.

High-quality raw materials

high-qualityWhen an oil specification comes out for a vehicle, our competitors go to the raw chemical companies and ask, “What is the cheapest way we can meet this specification.” When AMSOIL goes to these same companies, we ask, “What do we have to do to EXCEED those specifications.”

 

ISO 9001: Quality Management Systems

The standards provide guidance and tools for companies and organizations who want to ensure that their products and services consistently meet customer’s requirements, and that quality is consistently improved.management
