Universal Lubricants collects, refines blends and re-distributes its own green motor oil.

Eco Ultra is made at the company’s advanced re-refinery in the US.
“Using re-refined (or recycled) oil cuts fossil fuel use, lowers greenhouse gas emissions and reduces harmful environmental impacts on our Nation’s waterways. Eco Ultra provides American drivers the performance and reliability they expect in a high quality motor oil while at the same time having one of the highest percentages of recycled oil content,” said chief executive officer of Universal Lubricants, John Wesley.
Universal Lubricants collects used oil from the government and private business such as auto parts stores, dealerships, service stations, and oil change centres across the US. The company then transports that oil to a re-refinery located in Wichita, Kansas, where it undergoes hydro-treating process to remove all of the water, fuel and solvents as well as metals, asphalt flux and other heavy contaminants.
The purified high quality Grade II base stock oil is then blended with a synthetic formula and additives to make API certified Eco Ultra products. That oil is then collected again by the company and put back through its closed loop process.
