Amsoil Company Information Visit Amsoil's Home PageAmsoil History As a jet fighter squadron commander Lieutenant Colonel Albert J. Amatuzio had ample opportunity to witness synthetic lubricants in action. These oils are used exclusively in jet engines because of three extraordinary performance characteristics: an ability to reduce friction and wear on engine components, an ability to function dependably at severe temperature extremes and an ability to withstand rigorous and lengthy engine operation without chemical breakdown. Recognizing that these same benefits would prove invaluable in cars, trucks and other internal combustion engines, Amatuzio began an intense period of research in 1963. By 1966 his newly formulated synthetic motor oil was being used in several vehicles, including a new 1966 Ford station wagon owned by his radar observer and closest friend, business owner Jack Arotta. Throughout the 60's Amatuzio continued his research and developed commercially available synthetic oils under a variety of names. In 1970 he incorporated his own name into a commercially sold product called AMMOIL. In 1971 this product name was changed to AMZOIL and it continued to be sold commercially. While Amatuzio had developed and sold synthetic motor oils since the early to mid-sixties, it was 1972 that represented the true milestone. It was then that AMZOIL became the first synthetic motor oil in the world to meet American Petroleum Institute service requirements. Over the years Albert J. Amatuzio and AMSOIL have been acknowledged throughout the industry and by numerous industry publications as the developer of the first synthetic motor oil for automotive engines.
