AMSOIL

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 combustion engines, Al Amatuzio formulated the first synthetic motor oil in the world to meet API service requirements for automobile engines. The new lubricant performed like no other before it. When the first can of AMSOIL 10W-40 appeared on the market in 1972, it signaled the birth of an entire industry. AMSOIL synthetic lubricants have expanded the boundaries of lubrication science and redefined the performance possibilities of modern machinery and engines.

AMSOIL INC. was founded on Al Amatuzio’s desire for technical innovation, his commitment to high quality and his belief that consumers would respond to a superior product. The company has remained true to these ideals; its history is a checklist of revolutionary products that have withstood the tests of time. As the pioneer corporation in the field of synthetic lubrication, AMSOIL sees its Commitment to Excellence as a historical responsibility, and A.J. Amatuzio’s energy and vision continue to drive the company forward. ...inspired by aerospace technology

ALTRUM

The ALTRUM Story

The ALTRUM Division of AMSOIL, INC. includes four product lines for a healthy lifestyle: ALTRUM Nutritional Supplements, AquaBrite Water Filters, AGGRAND Natural Lawn and Garden Products and Pure Power Cleaning Products.

"We're on target with the ALTRUM products for value, quality and performance." -- Al Amatuzio

ALTRUM - Past, Present and Future
During Lieutenant Colonel Albert J. Amatuzio's service as an award-winning jet fighter pilot, he knew that the most important part of an airplane is the pilot, and he did his best to stay in top physical condition.

Amatuzio's belief was that a higher level of physical performance and well-being could be attained through proper nutrition. In 1985 he brought this principle of health through better nutrition to AMSOIL INC. with the founding of the ALTRUM nutritional product line. It became the flagship line for the ALTRUM Division.

ALTRUM products will always be on the cutting edge. In the future, ALTRUM will continue to provide the same excellence in health products that AMSOIL first established for lubricants in 1972.

The driving force behind the ALTRUM Division has been Al Amatuzio's unwavering belief that good nutrition and a healthy lifestyle are vital to success.

ALTRUM Today
That brings us to where the ALTRUM Division is today. Al Amatuzio made history by developing the world's first synthetic motor oil, and for many, he made history when he expressed the importance of health and nutrition by creating the ALTRUM Division.
