What is AdBlue™ ?
A registered trademark for AUS32, AdBlue is a solution of high
purity urea in demineralised water and is used as an operating
fluid in diesel-powered trucks that are fitted with Selective
Catalytic Reduction (SCR) equipment to reduce emissions. SCR
engines convert harmful exhaust gases into less destructive
substances. AdBlue is neither explosive nor harmful to the
environment and is classified under the minimum-risk category
of transportable fluids.
AdBlue is not a fuel additive. It is stored separately from the
vehicle’s diesel and is fed into the exhaust system.
On average, AdBlue is consumed at approximately 3-5% by volume
of diesel usage.

dispensing stations from 500-10,000 litre capacity and, uniquely, a
