Green Earth Technologies' 4-Cycle G-Oil(TM) Green Engine Oil Passes Qualification Tests for Robin America, Inc.'s Subaru Engines

Posted on: Tuesday, 21 April 2009, 08:00 CDT

STAMFORD, Conn., April 21 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Green Earth Technologies (Pink Sheets: GETG), a leading manufacturer and marketer of "green" environmentally safe consumer packaged goods and products, announced today that they have passed the qualification tests and warranty requirements for Robin America, Inc.'s Subaru Engines for their 4-Cycle G-OIL(TM) green engine oil. Subaru Engines are used on a variety of pressure washers and generators produced by Techtronic Industries Co. Ltd (HKEx stock code: 669, ADR symbol: TTNDY). These include Ridgid pressure washers with model numbers RD80702 and RD80701, the Ridgid RD8000 generators as well as Husky generators with model numbers HU2250, HU3650 and HU5000.

Robin America, Inc. thoroughly tested G-OIL and determined that it met all of their performance requirements for use in the Ridgid and Husky products exclusive to The Home Depot. 4-Cycle G-OIL engine oil is an ultimate biodegrabable oil derived from 100% renewable resources. Produced from extracts from the meat processing industry, G-OIL achieves performance comparable to synthetic oils, while maintaining an environmentally friendly non-toxic composition.

"After stringent testing, we are confident in the performance of G-OIL and are amazed by the innovative products being produced by Green Earth Technologies," said Jay Peck, President of Robin America, Inc. "Robin America, Inc. is committed to environmentally friendly initiatives and we couldn't be happier to approve 4-Cycle G-OIL engine oil for use in products distributed by TTI exclusively to The Home Depot."
