If it is not safe for people, then it is not safe for pets, plants or our planet!
Eco-Friendly + Hazard Free
 ü Focusing on the “GOOP”
  Differentiating OUR Green Messaging VS the COMPETITION
Other Brands w/GREEN CLAIMS
G.E.T. Brands’ GREEN CLAIMS
 
 

 
 ü Petroleum molecules never wear out
  Oil does not dissolve in water and it lasts a long time, sticking to
 everything from beach sand to bird feathers
  Only about 16% (estimated 1.3 billion quarts of motor vehicle engine oil
 generated yearly) of used oil is re-refined into new oil
 ü Used motor oil is the largest single source of oil
 pollution in our lakes, streams and rivers
  40% of oil pollution of our nation’s harbors and waterways is a result of
 improper collection, disposal or recycling of motor oil
  One pint of oil can make a slick larger than a football field
 ü Americans spill 180 million gallons of used oil
 each year into our waters.
  This is 16 times the amount spilled by the Exxon Valdez in Alaska

 ü Increase of bio-content as a lubricant
  Bio-based products are those composed wholly or significantly of
 agricultural ingredients - renewable plant, animal, marine or forestry
 materials.
  The Secretary of Agriculture has designated bio-based products for
 preferred purchasing by Federal Agencies
  Bio-preferred label
 » G-OIL is the only Motor Oil that meets program benchmarks

 ü Consumers are DEMANDING
  A lot of talk about GREEN, but very few products on the shelf for
 concerned consumers to “do their part”
  Current GREEN products are either not green, too expensive or do
 not work as well as their conventional petrochemical counterparts
  Consumers are willing to “try” GREEN, but not willing to pay a
 premium
  Very little SUPPORT from GREEN manufacturers in driving
 consumers to the shelf
  The majority of consumers would GO GREEN if they only knew HOW
 ü Government is MANDATING
  2008 Farm Bill - improve demand for bio-based products
  Presidential Mandate - EPA, GSA & USDA coordinated procurement
 efforts for environmentally preferred products
  Executive Order 13149 - “Greening” the government through
 federal fleet and transportation efficiencies
