SOMS announces Eco-Friendly Oil Filters Expansion for European and Asian Vehicles

Wednesday, April 8th, 2009

The thing with some car accessories and parts is that they are sometimes limited to certain vehicle classes. And for SOMS Technologies, a provider of engine oil filtration products, expanding its car niche for compatibility with their eco-friendly oil filters is certainly a great piece of news for people who want to use their product.

Major European and Asian automotive brands, including Audi, Honda, Infinity, Jaguar, Land Rover, Lexus, Mitsubishi, Nissan, Range Rover, Toyota and Volkswagen have now been included in their list of compatible cars that can make use of their eco-friendly filters. This latest expansion is in response to increased demand from fleets and individual drivers looking to reduce their carbon footprint while also saving money.

By extending the filter’s availability, now an even greater range of businesses and consumers can use the microGreen filter to increase environmental efficiency of their current vehicles or boost the efficiency of new hybrid vehicles.

The patented microGreen oil filter has two filters in one standard spin-on canister, which ensures that the oil stays cleaner, far longer – improving the life of the engine and allowing drivers to better maintain their vehicles. While traditional oil filters capture the larger particles in engine oil between 25 to 40 microns, microGreen’s patented microfilter system captures particles down to two microns in size.

This allows vehicles to operate up to 30,000 miles without an oil change, reducing motor oil use by 70 percent, filter use by 50 percent and cutting oil maintenance costs by 65 percent. As a result, businesses and consumers can ‘green’ their vehicles and see an immediate return-on-investment, unlike other eco-friendly alternatives.
