The Kendall Motor Oil Brand Origin Established in Bradford, Pennsylvania in 1881, the Kendall Motor Oil brand, a ConocoPhillips brand, continues to move into the 21st century as one of the leaders in technology and product innovation. Founded by William Willis, E. R. Loomis and R.H. Childs, Kendall Refining sought to refine the unique, prized components of the local Pennsylvania Grade Crude Oil into some of the highest quality products on the market. The desire to service the needs of the up-and-coming industrial and automotive industries resulted in a range of lubricants and greases designed for long and strenuous wear. Pioneers of lubricant technology and product design, the Kendall Motor Oil brand celebrates over 120 years in the industry. Brand Profile The excitement of the dawn of the industrial age and the fever of oil drilling coincided in the boomtown of Bradford, Pennsylvania in 1881. Possibility was the backdrop for the formation of Kendall Refining, a small operation committed to supplying industry with kerosene, lubricants and greases designed for long wear. At the turn of the century, Americans fell in love with the automobile. Challenged to meet the incredible consumer automotive demand, Kendall Motor Oil created the first research and development unit in Pennsylvania. As a result, Kendall Motor Oil developed the first oil designated for winter use and the first motor oil to help protect engines for an unprecedented 2,000 miles, compared to the then current standard of 500-1,000 miles.
