ALcontrol, formerly Robertsons research is a laboratory that Adam and Bob (the owners of OAL) before they started OAL in 2018. Bob is Adam father. ALcontrol has been purchased by Synlab and then SGS. SGS is a competitor lab. Other competitors include Intertek, Spectro Jetcare, OCLS, finning and PCMS. Oil Analysis Laboratories integrated management system is ISO9001 Quality, ISO14001 environment and ISO45001 certified and externally audited each year. The lab also undergoes annual safety inspections audits of our sites and open book access to our employee ethical fairness practices. We also submit financial records for additional auditing practices. OAL does not allow external audits on  key proprietary test methods such as LubeWear to protect our intellectual property. This unfortunately negate tests such as ICP being ISO 17025 accredited, but the whole management system is ISO9001 certified. To compensate for this and to confirm our data such as ICP elemental is accurate, the lab participate in regular proficiency testing programmes with ASTM where we are compared to hundreds of labs across the world for accuracy of our data. We also are externally approved by key OEMs such as Rolls Royce and nuclear generation providers and have gone through their specific approval processes to verify our high quality services.
