Independent pilot at industrial food-production facility delivers approximately 93% reduction in Free Fatty Acids and approximately 52% reduction in Total Polar Compounds versus untreated control Results extend Beyond Oil's validated technology into industrial frying amid tightening global regulation of frying-oil composition and worker exposure to frying-oil emissions VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Aug. 17, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Beyond Oil Ltd. (TSX: BOIL) (OTCQB: BEOLF) ("Beyond Oil" or the "Company"), a food-tech innovation company dedicated to reducing health risks associated with fried food while improving food quality, minimizing waste and enhancing sustainability, today announced the successful completion of an independent industrial-scale pilot validating its patented filter-powder technology at an industrial food-production facility. The pilot represents the first validated application of Beyond Oil's chemistry in the industrial-frying environment. Key Results Jonathan Or, CEO of Beyond Oil, commented: "This pilot is a validation of what Beyond Oil's chemistry is fundamentally about - improving frying across every dimension that matters: food quality, health, worker safety, and sustainability. While our near-term commercial focus remains firmly on the expansion of our direct-sales footprint in the United States for our core foodservice business, this milestone reflects longer-horizon work we have been advancing in parallel - validating that the same patented chemistry performs at industrial scale and delivers the same core outcomes: substantially cleaner oil, safer and higher-quality fried product, and a materially healthier working environment for the people producing that food. It confirms that our technology addresses a system-level problem in how the world produces fried food, independent of customer type or scale of operation, and reinforces the long-term significance of the industrial-frying opportunity for Beyond Oil." Industrial pilot results: approximately 93% lower Free Fatty Acids and approximately 52% lower Total Polar Compounds versus untreated control.
