Oilfast is now offering a Greener Diesel Replacement

Here at Oilfast, we understand that with the rising concerns of climate change, it’s never been more important for all of us, including those involved in manufacturing to do their part in reducing their emissions.

That is why we have invested in our Green D + HVO product. This allows us to offer our customers HVO, a greener diesel replacement fuel, without affecting their performance.

Green D + HVO is a renewable diesel replacement made to EN15940 standard. It is the lowest emission diesel replacement fuel available. GD+ is made entirely from waste and is defined as renewable and sustainable (RED11), whilst being highly refined. You can use GreenD+ in any diesel engine without requiring any changes to the engine. Manufacturers have approved GD+ and identified there is no degradation in performance.

GD+ contains a specifically designed performance additive, which includes deposit control compounds, lubricity improvements and other surface-active agents to ensure cleanliness and optimum combustion throughout the fuel system.

Benefits of Green D+ HVO

There are whole hosts of benefits of using a renewable diesel replacement:

Reduces maintenance cost

Reduces noise levels

Local air quality improved immediately through switching

Can remove fossil fuels from construction sites

Fuel efficiency improvement – The fuel burns more cleanly and more thoroughly

Red Diesel Changes

As you may know, the Government has removed the duty rebate from the 1st of April 2022. This is to help the UK achieve its target of “net-zero” carbon target. This will affect a lot of industries, including certain manufacturing companies. Companies will need to switch to alternative fuel and our Green D + product or a white diesel.

Oilfast is here to help with the switchover. We can deliver quickly and efficiently to help keep your business running.
