Are Synthetics Really Too Expensive?
Examining the Value Equation
by Ed Newman
AMSOIL Director of Advertising
This article appeared in National
Oil & Lube News, September 2006
When I first began writing for AMSOIL 20 years
ago one of the biggest “complaints” I heard from new Dealers was
that at five dollars a quart synthetic motor oil was “too
expensive.” What I find interesting is that while the price of
conventional petroleum oils have risen dramatically over the
years, synthetic oil price increases have been modest at best.
Synthetic oils were once 10 times the price of regular oils.
Yet there were other issues, too. People did
not have the confidence in synthetics then that they do today.
Back then you heard people say that it caused seal swell or was
so slippery it would leak right out of the car. Today, however,
when all is said and done, nearly everyone agrees synthetic oils
are better, but still some feel that they cost too much for what
you get. Are synthetic oils expensive? Let’s take few moments
here to compare the cost of synthetic oil to the cost of bottled
water.
A Google search led me to a Jeff Matthews column
where he does a breakdown on the cost of “Ethos” bottled water
that is sold at Starbucks. According to Matthews the bottle
contains 1.5 pints of water from the Tomhicken Mountain Springs
near Pottsville, Pennsylvania. Cost: $1.23 a pint or near two
dollars a quart and over nine dollars a gallon. This is water
from a spring and, yes, it is good, but what is involved in
making it?
Well, there are more expensive waters than this.
SuperNariva is magnetically energized water from a spring in
Japan’s Magnetic Mountain, purportedly providing a number of
spectacular properties including resistance to disease and
longer life. At $99.95 per milliliter, or $10,000 a liter, you
won’t want to spill a drop.
Other waters claim exotic origins, though many
bottled waters are simply taken from municipal water supplies,
treated and bottled. At one to three dollars a quart, bottled
water companies are experiencing a good brisk business. In fact,
according to the Beverage Marketing Corporation, Americans spent
more than nine billion dollars on bottled water, an industry
growing nearly 10 percent per year for 10 years straight.
Whatever the price, the process of making bottled water is
probably pretty straightforward. Take some water, put it in a
bottle, label it and ship it. By way of contrast, let’s review a
few of the steps involved in making premium synthetic motor oil
and the associated costs.
First, the raw materials must be assembled. But
before the raw synthetic base stock is unloaded from the tank
truck or rail car, quality control test sequences are
commenced. Incoming bulk materials cannot be placed into
storage tanks containing pure supplies until they have been
tested and approved. At AMSOIL we tie a red ribbon on every
outlet valve at the time of sampling and quality control testing
procedures are carried out for every single ingredient that will
become part of the finished product.
Once the certificate of analysis is written up,
the incoming material is moved from dock to stock status. This
procedure is carried out for every additive, which varies with
each lubricant from 5 to 12 ingredients.
From here we go to blending, a process far more
complicated than the simple assembling of ingredients as in
making chocolate chip cookies. Assuming a commitment to high
standards, there are quality control procedures for cleaning the
hoses, tanks, pipes and valves as well as the containers for
sampling. Records are kept for each step.
After the lubricant is blended, another round of
quality control testing is undertaken. Each lube has its own
sequence of tests to pass. Not all are time consuming. One test
for the gear oils, for example, takes half an hour. Motor oils
have the Noack test for volatility which takes 1.5 hours, but
another standard test takes 13 days. IR scans on all samples are
run on a $250,000 piece of equipment. Field trials when
developing new formulations can take years. How do you even
measure these kinds of costs? Researchers are continually
looking into the unknown and reacting to results. Amount of
time spent and the testing varies with each product.
Summing Up
The easiest way to describe QC for our company is that all
products are tested three times before they reach the customers’
hands. Once as a raw material, once as a finished product, and
once before packaging. Add to this the cost of raw materials
themselves, plus labor and equipment costs for blending and
manufacturing. Space does not permit me to outline the
multi-page documents outlining the operation of our bottling
line.
Ultimately, the consumer does not care much
about all these details. You can help reassure them that oil
companies are holding the line on costs as best they can, that
there is more involved than meets the eye. Motorists want to
protect their investment, whether car or light truck, so they
can spend time thinking about other things.
Are synthetic oils a good value? Everyone knows
they are indeed superior to conventional petroleum in
protection, performance, power, engine cleanliness, and better
mileage. The price of synthetics may be higher than most bottled
water by a smidge, but the benefits to a vehicle are
immeasurable.

AMSOIL
is the undisputed leader in synthetics......
Since 1972, AMSOIL Synthetics have proven to be
the BEST. AMSOIL also engineers and
manufactures Super Duty Oil filters which have a 25,000 mile service life as
well as specialized filtration systems for commercial and fleet applications in
cars and light, medium and heavy trucks which can filter particles down to less
than one micron (a standard full flow oil filter can only filter to 20-25
microns with any degree of efficiency) making oil changes virtually
unnecessary and virtually eliminating engine wear. These filters have been
proven by millions of miles of over-the road trucks, construction equipment and
fleet service.
