SHELL is British-Dutch company. Not German.

https://www.shell.com/about-us/who-we-are.html

it is not a German comonay, but the oil made in Germany as stated on the bottle. Apple also not a China company but products made in china.

What ever made in German should be atas? Anyway hint of sarcasm on my previous post. Cheers...

They may really receive such a letter one day and do a mass recall of all the shell oils they sell. Nothing is impossible

It's good to be skeptical sometimes, but we're talking about Giant, not xyz minimart in HDB void deck.

 

Sell cheap, people think fake. Sell expensive, people say profiteering. Companies do biz very tough...

Hey, does anyone have an experience of using motor oil packed in ecoboxes? It has the same label as in cans... but what about the quality? Is it different in those boxes or the same?

I buy those boxes all the time. I buy Everest oil and so far so good. Can't tell a difference at all. But the price is smaller and less harm to the environment. Pure profit)

Here's their company's website - http://usglobalpetroleum.com/category/engine_oil

You can find the one for yourself.

I attended  a talk organsied by MCF at a tyre shop cum servicing workshop at Lok Yang many years back. Even the presenter said there is no way they can control the source of the engine oil. Shell engine oil can come from S’pore, M’sia, Hong Kong.

 

Some source may be more riskier as the bottle may contain recycled oil, which looks similar to brand new oil It depends on the workshop manager’s honesty.

 

Many car distributors like Kah Motors, Komoco, Cycle & Carriage also use Shell engine oil. There is no way car owners can verify the source of the oil which come in drums. Even VW can rig emission levels – what level of honesty can you expect from big established companies?
