Valvoline launches engine oil formulas exceeding ILSAC GF-7 standards
Valvoline™ Global Operations, a worldwide leader in automotive and industrial solutions, has launched its new engine oil formulas for the U.S. and?Canada.?According to Valvoline, these formulas surpass the updated International Lubricant Standardization and Approval Committee (ILSAC)?GF-7 standards. The company further stated that it has been a driving force behind the continuous development of new engine oil standards since their inception. Valvoline Global has remained consistent in ensuring that their formulations exceed industry specifications, while its engine lab is actively involved in helping define the ILSAC engine oil standards.
“These days, everything seems to move just a little bit faster, and our engines have to work even harder to keep up with the pace of our busy lives,” said Dr.?Michael Warholic, Senior Global Technology Director at Valvoline Global Operations. “By helping car owners maintain their vehicles’ performance and longevity, Valvoline’s dedication to developing the ILSAC GF-7 standards is protecting engines not just for today, but for the needs of tomorrow as well, delivering improved performance levels in almost every area.”
“Advances in engine oil performance wouldn’t be possible without the dedication, expertise and leadership of our Valvoline engineers and scientists, who work tirelessly to help define and shape the industry standards, continually raising the bar to benefit us all,” said Warholic.
Valvoline’s ILSAC GF-7 compliant engine oils provide exceptional performance and protection against the four main causes of engine breakdown – wear, friction, heat, and deposits – to provide consumers with more than just the basic protection standard needed for modern engine performance.
Valvoline’s ILSAC GF-7 full synthetic technology was tested in a single engine for over 500,000 miles across three years without replacing any critical component, while significantly reducing sludge and deposits compared to an ILSAC GF-6 quality oil.
