"PQIA has been an invaluable partner in helping us protect consumers by enhancing our existing motor oil program's capabilities. Their thorough analysis, technical guidance, and precise and easy to understand reports have been instrumental in removing harmful products from the marketplace." Ronald G. Hayes, Director, Weights, Measures & Consumer Protection Division Missouri Department of Agriculture "The analysis of the blind sample results sent to PQIA and their detailed reports were instrumental in helping Michigan get felony convictions against the owners of City Petroleum and Star Petroleum. With the prevalence of these types of misbranded products being found throughout the U.S., we will continue to search out those being sold in Michigan and take the necessary action to protect Michigan consumers."
