Biodiesel has higher lubricity, which means less engine wear and higher component life without reduced performance. With biodiesel, there’s no difference in fuel consumption, horsepower or torque when compared to conventional diesel fuel.

Cleaner-burning, nontoxic and renewable, biodiesel is a sustainable fuel source that reduces greenhouse gas emissions by more than 75 percent when compared to petroleum diesel. To put it into perspective, imagine removing nearly a million passenger vehicles from America’s roadways.

Ask For It. Use It.

Biodiesel is a clean-burning renewable fuel made using natural vegetable oils and fats. It does not require costly modifications to diesel engines and is superior to pre-2006 diesel. Blends up to B100 are today’s solution for heavy-duty trucking, emergency vehicles, bus fleets, farm equipment and other diesel engines as the world works towards a decarbonized future.
