The ATIEL Code of Practice is accepted industry-wide as best practice
for the development and manufacture of engine oils conforming to European ACEA standards.
It has helped to set standards and quality guarantees for lubricants made or marketed by oil companies that adhere to its guidelines.
It provides a benchmark for auditing the development and production
of lubricants and ensuring the validity of performance claims made
for them.
