"We're extremely pleased with the progress we are making as we produce and ship opening and re-orders to a growing list of customers," says Jeff Marshall, Chairman and CEO of Green Earth Technologies. "We only began shipping GET products in the last half of 2008, so the shipment of over 1,000,000 units is a huge milestone for a start up company, not to mention a 'green' company," he added.

The company continues to fulfill re-orders from their current list of customers as well as ship new orders to a growing list of new customers. The results and positive consumer response of the 2-Cycle G-OIL Green Engine Oil, especially the 2.6 oz 50:1 ratio, has led to the introduction and successful placement of their new 4-Cycle outdoor engine oils. These outdoor small engine oils are formulated to meet or exceed the SM, SL and SJ performance requirements of the American Petroleum Institute (API) for all 4-Cycle air cooled engines as well as JASO FD and API TC for all 2-Cycle air cooled engines. They can be found along with G-OIL Ultimate Biodegradable Bar & Chain oil in a variety of national and regional retailers, including The Home Depot and participating ACE and True Value Hardware stores.

Made from American-grown plant oils, the "G"-Branded appearance products use plant oils to create 1-4 nanometer sized "micelles" that penetrate dirt, breaking it into billions of little particles that constantly repel each other until eaten by the micro-organisms and bacteria living in the ground. These products will not harm the environment by traveling into our waterways.

G-WASH Heavy Duty Car Wash and G-CLEAN Organic Glass Cleaners are among GET's best selling appearance products to date and have recently added Kroger and Albertson's to a growing list of product placement in an expanding list of chain food and automotive part retailers.
