Motorists filling up with diesel at service stations up and down the country are now used to buying fuel which contains up to 7 per cent biodiesel.

That's the result of EU and UK government policies which require a percentage of all transport fuel sold in the UK to come from renewable sources. The blend of 7 per cent biodiesel to 93 per cent mineral diesel means that no changes are required to the logistics of the fuel supply chain or to vehicle engines.

More and more people and businesses are recognising the benefit of biodiesel, both for the environment and for their budgets as filling up on renewable fuel can be cheaper and deliver improved miles per gallon.

After very successful trials on Argent’s own truck fleet and with Stagecoach, one of the UK’s biggest bus and coach operators, some buses and trucks now run on 100 per cent biodiesel.

In between, there’s increasing interest in high percentage blends. For bus and truck operators 20 to 50 per cent biodiesel (B20 to B50) is often optimum for ease of use, carbon reduction and for the economic benefits that come from improved miles per gallon. More information can be found here.

Whatever your requirements, we can help you choose the ideal blend to maximise carbon reduction aims, improved fuel efficiency and ease of use.

We can deliver 100 per cent biodiesel for blending by customers or we can blend to customers’ exact requirements such as B30 or B50.
