Description of Requirement:
- A German SME specializing in the production of high-quality additives for fuels and lubricants. Additives have multiple positive effects and can be used for the storage and combustion of fossil and bioenergy. The company is looking for partners who can gain access to oil trading, refineries, gas station networks and commercial vehicle operators through distribution service agreements or commercial agency agreements.
details:
The German manufacturer of fuel and lubricant additives was founded in 1993. It is able to continuously expand the product portfolio and supply products directly to dealers and customers. Additives are used in many areas of everyday life. For example, in the food industry, the construction industry and even the cosmetics industry. However, they are also used for the storage and combustion of fossil and bioenergy sources, including gasoline, (bio)diesel, heating oil, LPG and ethanol.
Application areas are:
-Standard-compliant additives
Additives are required for the production of fuels according to German Industrial Standards (DIN) or EU standards. Refineries or import tank terminals use additives to deliver their products as economically and compliantly as possible.
- Performance enhancing additives
The effectiveness of additives for improving engine performance has been tested and certified by Technischer Oberwachungsverein (TUV is an internationally active service company from Germany and Austria that tests, inspects and certifies technical systems) and manufacturers. Among other things, additives are used in racing cars to further improve engine performance.
-Additives improve function
The addition of additives optimizes the combustion of the fuel, making it easier to comply with emission limits (Euro 6).
- Heating oil additives
Premium heating oils are commercially upgraded with additional additive packages to ensure trouble-free use even after prolonged storage.
- Renewable fuel (eFuel)
In Switzerland, bio-content of up to 20% in fuel is now common, even mandatory. In particular the so-called fatty acid methyl esters (FAME) obtained from vegetable fats such as rapeseed oil or animal fats are used in biodiesel or biofuels
material. Biological content results in a better environmental balance, but it requires additives to provide generally good performance.
The company offers tested quality "Made in Germany", supports sales partners and online ordering facilities.
