Road & Haulage

Fuelcare provide a number of major UK & European Logistics operators with Biocide solutions for contamination prevention. Their aim is to keep their trucks on the road, providing their customers with a faultless delivery service. Our biocides are used across whole networks as a preventative measure, in addition to cases where contamination has been a problem and needs quickly solving.A case study of our experience using KATHON™ FP 1.5 in this area has been provided below.

Road & Haulage Case Study

In 1989 microbially contaminated fuel brought buses in a European capital city to a standstill. Over a 5 month period a number of vehicles from the local public transport company encountered problems caused by blocked fuel lines and filters.

Eventually microbial contamination in the central fuel storage system was identified as the source of these problems. Treatment with Kathon™ FP 1.5 successfully cleaned up the system. Kathon™ FP 1.5 has subsequently been used on a regular basis to ensure that the stored fuel remains free from contamination.

Kathon is supplied rapidly to haulage operators and transport companies on a daily basis. It can be supplied by Fuelcare in the UK in small quantities and also for larger consignments to the UK, Europe and Worldwide.
