EELQMS (The European
Engine Lubricant Quality
Management System)

EELQMS is a quality management system for automotive engine lubricants. It has been developed jointly by ACEA, ATC and ATIEL. The system is administered by SAIL (Services to Associations and Industry in the Lubricants sector). It is designed to assist lubricant marketers in assuring the quality of their lubricants and the performance claims being made for them in the marketplace.

ACEA
Sequences

ACEA European Oil Sequences cover light duty passenger cars & heavy-duty trucks.

They define the minimum quality level of a product for presentation to ACEA members. Individual member companies may indicate performance parameters other than those covered by the tests shown or more stringent limits.

ATIEL
Code of practice

The ATIEL Code of Practice (CoP)-in operation since 1996 – has been developed jointly by the European Automobile Manufacturers’ Association (ACEA), the Additives Technical Committee (ATC) and ATIEL. The purpose of this Code is to provide a mechanism and a basis for commitment to standardise practices when developing, marketing, or manufacturing engine lubricants for which compliance with the ACEA Oil Sequences is claimed.

Product
Stewardship

Chemicals play a fundamental role in modern societies and in the lubricants industry. The latter has the duty to ensure safe use of chemicals by complying with all relevant legislation, i.e., REACH.

News in brief

ATIEL Technical Seminar

On 22 June 2022, ATIEL will Hold a Technical Seminar on the theme: “towards a Sustainable and Innovative Lubricants Industry”. The Lubricants Industry wants to be part of the solution to environmental sustainability. Addressing environmental issues with technical expertise in liaison with the UEIL Sustainability Committee covering the whole life cycle of the products (from cradle to cradle) is crucial to progress in this field. The morning session will be dedicated to the green deal and the green transition with a keynote speech from the European Commission and two panel sessions on the ATIEL activities in this field.

ACEA E6-2016 and E9-2016 have been replaced by ACEA E8-2022 and ACEA E11-2022. ACEA E7 and ACEA E4 will remain, however new engine test hardware is adopted and test limits for existing tests have been revised.  

ACEA Sequences 2021 for light duty engines

ACEA 2021 updates the Light-Duty Sequences to replace old engine tests that have reached the end of life, to allow a continuation of the engine oil development process for vehicles already in market. The new tests run on more up to date engine hardware but allow oil marketers to continue to supply oils with proven field performance.
