THE ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY OIL CHANGE

EcoPower–a quality motor oil that’s:

  • Recycled
  • Twice refined
  • Uses up to 85% less energy to produce

* EcoPower exceeds the highest North American standards for gasoline engine oil

QUALITY OIL - TWICE REFINED

EcoPower base oil made from used oil is clearer than a virgin base oil made from crude. Production processes of re-refined vs. virgin crude oil are virtually identical with re-refined quality being equal to virgin base oil quality.

The American Petroleum Institute (API) evaluates base oils only on exacting performance criteria and re-refined oils must perform to the same standards as oil made from virgin crude.

Motor oil doesn’t wear out or somehow lose its lubricity. It just gets dirty. By re-refining it to a base oil and then blending in the right additive package, a quality re-refined motor oil is produced.


CLOSING THE RECYCLING LOOP

We help you close the recycling loop, providing quality recycled products that are easier on the environment.

Here's how it works:

  • Customers enjoy an environmentally friendly EcoPower re-refined oil change at Firestone
  • Safety-Kleen provides used motor oil pickup
  • Safety-Kleen re-refines used motor oil

This process uses up to 85% less energy to produce and only 1/10th of the feedstock compared to virgin crude, conserving scarce natural resources.
